Best Answer

Laptop batteries should be allowed to fully discharge once a month for longer performance. Leaving a laptop plugged in all the time can take years off the life of the battery. If you are going to store the battery for more than six months. let it drain to 50% before storage. Storing a batter with less power may leave it in a deep discharge state, and it will not hold a charge when you try to use it again.
