Just got a laptop and i was wondering if you leave the laptop on charged ALL THE TIME, will it be bad for the battery?

hVe you tried completetloy discharging the batterty and then refcharging it/Originally Posted by chino905
When I had my first laptop during freshman yr in college, I would leave it charged all day everyday.. by the end of my soph. Year, the battery on my laptop was non existent.. it would be 0% all the time. So I wouldn't advise you to charge it all the time.

from what i learned, when you laptop is fully charged, the battery is no longer in use, the laptop uses power from the outlet only, not the battery
IMO if you use your battery all the time and charge it fully, then use your laptop, that will kill the battery
btw, once a month, let your battery drain to 0%, then fully charge it, it doesnt help your battery life, but it makes your battery meter more accurate
i had to replace my laptop battery last year after two years for the same reason... its actually best for most laptop batteries to be run all the way down frequently
now im getting more than one answer =(
