I have 2 X12 volt batteries in my boat. One battery has a label on it saying - not a suitable battery for cycling applications. What does this mean?
Battery cycling is a process in which a battery's charge is entirely or nearly depleted, recharged, and the process is repeated. In your case, the battery is not designed to do this for safety reasons, presumably battery explosion. As long as the battery is constantly being recharged by the alternator of your boat's engine and not cycled, you have nothing to worry about, aside from standard precautions and preventive maintenance.
Do you need to let a laptop battery run out?
It depends on the type of battery you have in your laptop.NiCd (Nickel Cadmium) batteries have a sort of memory effect. It is a good idea to cycle (Discharge fully) these kind of batteries as this ensures maximum capacity for longer.NiMhd (Nickel Metal Hydride) does not have this memory effect. They should not need to be discharged fully before being recharged.Memory effect is:The battery "remembers" after a few times of being recharged, when it was recharged. The capacity will then start to drop drastically and begs for a recharge when it reaches the point of where it normally have been recharged before.Example:A battery (NiCd) being at 50% and then recharged will after a few times drop the voltage at 50%. This giving the impression that it is "empty" where it is not really so.Note:The memory effect can be cancelled with a couple of deep discharge and full charge again. The battery is then -revived- brought back to capacity again.

After 1972 volkswagon beetle running fine all day when we got home it will not start. key doesn't seem to do anything it has a new battery. Could there be a trick with the ignition?
check your battery post terminals for good clean connection. If no problem there then you might have a bad generator. Your generator might not be charging your battery. If you installed a new battery and ran your bug all day chances are that your engine was running off of the battery which was not being recharged by your generator. As soon as you turned off your engine and tried to re-start it, your battery did not have enough juice to crank the engine over. Good luck.
Can you take the battery out of your laptop when im at home and just pulg in to an outlet so you can consever your battery since the majority of the time you are at home using thelaptop?
When I plug in my laptop, it does not use the battery to run the computer. Instead, it uses the wall outlet to run the computer and to recharge the battery. So, by leaving my battery in my laptop when it is plugged in, I am recharging my battery and not running it down. If you take the battery out of your laptop and do not recharge it, it will not last long. The computer batteries that I know about can go from 2 to 8 hours without being recharged.
Why doesn't my car start after being parked over night?
Often cars that are parked overnight need to be recharged. It is possible that the battery has died and needs a replacement or a jump to start.
Which side of battery do you disconnect to stop the battery running down in a vehicle not being used for a while?
Disconnect the negative cable.
Is Keeping battery in the sleeping room harmful?
GAWD H8S U LOL If you mean a lead acid battery from a car then yes it is, especially when being recharged. Batteries for torches and remote controls etc, also called dry cells, are safe.
Why does your battery light stay on you put a new battery in it?
That light doesn't mean that your battery needs to be replaced. It means that your battery is not being charged while the car is running. Have your alternator tested.
Should you let your computer battery die before recharging?
No, completely discharging a lithium battery will damage it significantly reducing its ability to hold charge. However a lithium battery that is discharged to just a few percent of completely discharged before being recharged will get more successful recharge cycles than one that is recharged much earlier. Its a somewhat tricky balancing act and I have destroyed a few batteries myself by not stopping the discharge soon enough.
