Should I let the battery die?
- I have read that the battery should be completely drained of its charge several times after its first put to use. Make sure that you fully charge the battery each time as well.10-02-09 04:17 PMLike 0
- Don't let the battery drain all the way...not good!

- I was trying to also get the point across that they also store better with a slight charge. I have also posted a few times that I have abused the batteries on every phone I have ever had, and never had a problem. Plus phones only last foe about two years anyway and my phone always crapped out before my battery. I would not worry about it to much, I also would not fully discharge it all the time.

- Too many people still don't know about this.
And most of my friends who use bb always gave me this strange look of disbelief everytime i tell them not to let the battery very low or completely drained.

Ni-Cads suffer from so-called memory effect whereby a battery that is used between (say) 25% and 75% charge, will soon begin to behave as if 75% is full charge and 25% is flat.
Lithium-Ion (Li-On) batteries do not manifest this behaviour.
No harm done.10-03-09 07:11 AMLike 0 - Too many people still don't know about this.

I didn't want to post there because this is the latest topic started by the OP and thx to vdubguy who posted the link.
You've been very helpful, so it's only natural to say thanks.10-03-09 11:34 AMLike 0 - Ok, so now you're really scaring me. I have a 32gig playbook and I thought you were supposed to let them get very low a few times so that they realize their full capacity? Is that wrong?12-11-12 08:32 PMLike 0
- As the thread says, it is not a good idea to let Li-ion batteries completely drain and then charge. That can severely impact the overall battery life. Conversely, charging after even minimal discharge doesn't harm the overall battery life.12-11-12 09:11 PMLike 0
