Keeping MBA connected to Power Adapter

Most of the time I keep my Macbook Air 2014 model connected to Power Source: PowerAdapter.

Though Atleast, Once in a week I let it full discharge and full charge.


I Bought my Mac on August.

is it a good practice?

is it all good?

any suggestions to improve Battery Life?

currently Load Cycle is 48..

How many Load Cycles will it take to get to 50% and ultimately 0%(Fully depleted)?

MacBook Air, null

You should not fully discharge the battery.


Keep the computer plugged in whenever possible.


If you keep the computer always plugged in, make sure that at least twice a month


run it on battery until battery level drops to about 50-40%.
