    Now, for the best battery health, just need to only charge everything that’s used portably but plugged in every night to 80%, and everything that’s occasionally moved from place to place but only ever used when it’s plugged in to 50%.

    100% charges are for those occasions when you’ll be working away from power for a few days.
