Hi!
If I keep my MacBook Air 13 inch on charge at night will it cause any harm to my battery?
I use my MacBook Air on battery during day and evening and prefer to charge it when I am in bed.
Just thinking if I leave it on charge for whole night is there any harm?

The Apple chargers are intelligent - they turn off once the LED goes green - you can tell from the warmth of the charger - quite warm whilst charging, then goes cool once done.
But what can harm the battery is keeping it plugged in all the time. You should unplug it at least once a month and use it until you get the low battery warning. And if you won't be using the computer for an extended period, make sure it is charged about 1/2 way before turning the computer off.
Happy to know this. At night my house glows with little green, red, blue, etc. lights everywhere! My iPhones, iPad and iPod are all sound asleep.
KEEPING MacBook Air ON CHARGE ALL NIGHT LONG WILL CAUSE ANY HARM?
