    so far i am okay with the 6 hour battery life this notebook gets


    my question is what is BEST way to extend battery life? since we cannot physically remove the battery on this unit.

    should i leave it plugged in all the time (i don't' really take this around all the time so i can), or should i charge it to 100% unplug, drain it to very low then plug in (rinse and repeat)?

    which is way is the best way to extend battery life?

    Keep it plugged in all the time. Windows automatically stops charging once you have a certain %, its usually 92%.
