Yes, this is the kind of thing I was wondering about. My laptop has all sorts of stuff in the bios about battery charging settings and phones do weird stuff about overnight charging so I assume there are still some issues with charging. It's just whether it's smart enough to take that into account without manual intervention.

My understanding with Lithium-Ions is, that to prolong battery life, you charge them when they've dropped to 30%, and take them off charge when they reach 80% of full capacity.
According to the IT bod at work, I shouldn't keep the work lappy I have permanently at home, plugged into the charger all the time. Having said that, it is an ancient HP, from darker times.
