Product: HP notebooks
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

read forums & mag articles, asked 'geeks'....prefer definitive answer from HP experts

  (have heard different answers for each of our notebooks...old one+brand new one)

 

 

What is the most IDEAL method to operate/maintain each of these notebooks??

(leave plugged in 24/7  --  unplug, drain, recharge monthly  --  something else?)

 

 

 

1.  HP Pavilion dv7-4270us Entertainment Notebook

                 (has the upgraded 9-volt battery pack)

 

 

2.  HP ENVY x360 13t  Convertible Touchscreen PC  (13-yOXX)
