That would make sense.  I still do not understand why my cellular battery 
lasted over 4 years and was still viable when retired.  I had much less from 
laptop batteries.

I think it would because a rechargeable  has a maximum amount of charge time on 
it. at least that is the way it USED to be!

Sometime ago we discussed laptop battery life.  I asked the question about 
leaving the battery out and if that would extend the life of the battery.  I'm 
not sure that option was explored.


Last December I took the battery out of my two lap tops.  I use both daily for 
about 15 or 16 continuous hours.

I have been thinking the batteries might be fully drained by now.  Much to my 
surprise the newer laptop's battery was at 81% and the older laptop's battery 
was at 58%.


Both are taking a charge.  After they are fully charged I will put them back in 
my desk drawer and charge them again in 3 to 6 months.

I've have had poor performance from laptop batteries and did not want to "cook" 
these.  It will be interesting to see if this extends the life of the battery.


Any
 thoughts?
