How to take care of your Battery

Im no expert but based from my research from the net, here are some advice so that you can take good care of your phones battery or tablets battery.

As we know some battery like in the Iphone4/4s are not user replaceable. So its good to take care of the health of your phones battery so you can prolong its life.

1. Dont OVERCHARGE your battery. Dont leave your phone charging for a long period of time. If you can charge it till it reaches 100% then unplugged it. Personally, I charge my gadgets when Im about to sleep so what I did was to buy a timer, wherein my gadgets are just charged 4 hours. My phone and my galaxy tab7 usually gets 100% charged in 3 hours, so I just put in an extra hour because sometimes I still use my gadgets when charging them.

2. Dont let your battery life go to 0%. For safety when it reaches 10% just turn your phone off if you cant charge it. Letting you battery die while using it will reduce its run time. As much as 20-30% based on my research.

3. Dont charge your phone/tablet while its in its leather cases/ other cases. This is because our phone heats up when we charge it and it cant "breath" properly when its inside a case.

4. Charging your phone frequently does not reduce its runtime significantly. Just charge it between 10%-100% anytime you want. But do fully charge it once a month. Doing so will lengthen its life.

So there you have it. Just some tips based on my experience and from researching on the net.
