Question about laptop power supply
7/30/2014 3:25:07 PMDaniel M. Rine
Dear Radio Guys,
I have just got back online and the question that I have may not be good on this forum, however, in the passed I had very good results with replies to other questions that I have asked, so thought I would try another question. I just bought a HP 15 laptop computer and my question is this: After the battery is 100% charged is it safe to keep the power supply plugged into the computer?
Much thanks for all the help!!!!!

You don't need to worry about overcharging your laptop. It has a battery management circuit to handle the charging-rate function.

Yes, that's what many people do. However, my Toshiba laptop has an "eco mode," wherein the battery is allowed to partially discharge before automatically recharging it. Check under power options to see if you have such a mode. That would be a little easier on the battery.

But, if your battery ever gives up the ghost, it can be replaced.
