I was being facetitios re charging cycles. Best advice on an lion battery is the 40-80 rule. Not dipping too deep and not dipping to shallow is what l-ion batteries like. The “Smart” battery case’s always on functioning forces the battery to stay in high charge state trickle mode 24-7. That is bad. It is an extreme. If the battery only uses a percent or two a day of discharge then it could take 80-100 days for a full cycle. Not smart.
