This is Jospeh. I would like to add to what everyone said. There are numbers that you have to monitor as the battery ages. Go to Support Information mode. Type C. If the number is below 1000 or 500, then you should pay attention to the number perioadically. If you type D, you should gtet that the designed capacity is 1800. If it starts to decrease, you should pay close attention.
