HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-c0000 (2W0J5AV)

Is it ok to leave my HP 17.3 inch Laptop PC 17-c0000, plugged in all the time?

Hi:

 

I don't recommend keeping your notebook plugged in to AC power 100% of the time.

 

Once in a while (like once or twice a month), unplug it and run it off the battery until the low battery warning comes on.

 

Then you can connect the notebook up to A/C power again.

 

I recommend this due to the potential of leaving the notebook plugged in all of the time may lead to battery swelling.

 

See this link for how to get the most life out of your notebook's battery:
