Has anyone noticed that if your battery is about 99% charged and you plug in the power, the battery charge cycle does not increment, even though it will still charge your battery to 100%?

TruthSeeker and Gang: Ok, we all agree that batteries are comsumerables but we are running out of topics and battery discussion is still an interesting one, at least to me ...  :wink:

oops ..I mean “consumables”.  :oops:

hmmm didn’t notice that. :?

I think its because it always keeps it around 99-100% because it won’t overcharge the battery.

The battery needs to get drained more for the charge cycle to increment. Mine stays most of the times on AC adapter and very rarely on battery (and that too for a short while) so I would have to charge the machine plenty of times before my charge cycle would increment. Whereas someone who runs the TR on battery for more time would experience a faster increment in charge cycles.
