Hi all.
A very common question is asked by the laptop owners.
How do I save my laptop battery's lifetime.
actually the answer is not so simple as it depends on some variables like:
when have you purchased your laptop?
what is the technology used in your battery cells?
how much time you use your machine daily and if the most of that is on battery?
actually I am not going to talk deeply inside this technical approach.
but I will give you the simplest way to keep your laptop's battery safe.

Keeping the battery in a cool place can prolong its life but not in a period of extended storage. The Li-ion battery should be stored at 40 percent rather than full-charge state.
1- Never Leave your laptop connected to the charger while it is OFF.
2- Remove the battery from the laptop if you are using it as a desktop replacement.
3- always perform one full charge and discharge for the battery every 2 weeks.
4- try to not leave the battery to a lower level. charge it back once it goes under 30%
5- the most important care is "don't over charge the battery" if it is full, remove the charger or remove the battery.
6- One exception: if you have a new laptop , then it should have some SW that organize the battery charging. so when it gets full, it will disconnect the power from it. but remember that this require the laptop to be ON not in sleep or shutdown states.
7- store the battery at a 40 percent charge level. Never fully charge or discharge the battery before storage.
