Hi people,

I own a G46 and I've been wondering about how I can treat my battery the most economical way (I'm not sure if that's the right word, English is not my first language).

I've owned a laptop mostly for work before this one and after a couple of years the battery of my old laptop slowly started to die out.
At some point the battery would only keep my laptop on for maybe another 4/5 minutes.
I really want to avoid this to happen to my G46 for as long as possible ( I know it will eventually reach that point one day :P)

So there is a couple of situations where I'm not sure if I should keep the charger in or not.
For example, when the battery is on 100%, is it a bad thing to keep the charger in? I've read something about a system that recognises that it's on 100% and then stops trying to charge it. But would that mean that the battery would go down to 99% and then charge it back to 100%? Cause I feel like that's really bad for the battery if it keeps doing that continuously.

I know that if I want to play games with good FPS that it should be plugged in and I have no problems with that.
But I'm not sure if there is a integrated system in the battery/laptop that doesnt "overcharge" the battery or something.
Maybe the battery isn't being used while it's on 100%? I'm not sure if that's a possible

I dont know a lot about batteries, all I know is that keeping it on "charge" while it's full is bad. And that you want to be "charging" as least as possible.

Kinda off-topic idea of mine:
Wouldn't it be great if there was a piece of software to which you could say "I'm going to unplug it now" so that it only activates the battery at that time?
The negative side of this is that when you accidentally unplug it it would immediately shut down your laptop.
