TyTN battery life.

[Marques]

Hello,

What's the best method to recharge the TyTN so the battery takes longer to get addicted?
Waiting for the battery to get fully drained and the TyTN to shut down with no power, or recharge it when it notifies us of low battery (20%)?

I've heard both versions, so I was wandering what actually was the best method for a long battery life...

Thank you.

It's NEVER a good idea to completely drain a lithium ion battery. Doing so can actually shorten its life...

That's what i've read too. Constantly topping up the charge is meant to be the best way.

Lithium is best to constantly charge and not drain completely. That was good only fot the very old Nicd batteries.

So I should have it running on power adapter all the time when I have a power supply near is that it? Even if it's 90% or 80% battery full?

For my P900 every night I put it on charge, I never saw any detremental effect on the battery?!

I intend to charge my TyTN every night also :)

Yes, charge whenever / wherever you can... even if it's just for a few minutes...

But should I always charge the battery until full, or it's ok to charge just for a few minutes like said but not until 100%?
