A cycle is when the battery is drained to 0 percent and charged
back up to 100. If you let it drain to 75% and charge it back to
100% in constitutes only 1/4 of a cycle.

Hello,
What is the best way to operate a laptop when on the AC adapter,
with the battery in place or removed? Am concerned with battery
life and number of cycles. Battery is always down a little after
a shut-down and restart on the power source, does this constitute
a "cycle"?
Thank you
All mine are always plugged in when possible 24/7 batteries it place.
