Be sure to not run the battery flat; leave it on charger when not used as 'portable' mac.


Since the battery cannot over-charge, that is best left on charge; due to automatically

being able to regulate the battery life. The question you pose & answer are not equal.

Charging Cycles:

Once could only assume the battery life, as here is no spec for battery life. It typically goes by charging cycles. So, if you are charging it quite often, then it will run out quicker than those who do not.
