I want my battery life to be at its best and hence was wondeing which would be the appropriate way to charge my laptop. Previously i had used used another HP laptop and since i used to always plug in the charger even when the charge is full, the battery soon became damaged. SO what is the best way to charge this laptop? should i always shut it down and charge it? or is it ok to charge it even when i am using it? Is there any benchmark as to which level i should charge the battery and then plug it off, like 80%?
Please claify and suggest the best way to charge this laptop.
