Hi, I have a HP HX4700 Pocket PC that is powered by a Li-ion battery.
I'd like to know what charging cycle would be best to get the longest life
out of the battery.
I know that some types of battery suffer from the memory effect but I was
told that li-ion batteries do not.
Is this true?
And if so does that mean it is ok to charge it even if it is half full or
whatever?
The reason I ask is that I am using a USB sync and charge cable, so every
time I sync my ppc with my home computer it starts charging the battery. I
sync them several times a day so the battery doesn't get a chance to
discharge fully.
There is a setting supposedly to switch usb charging on/off on the ppc but
even when switched off it charges anyway.Will this shorten the life of the
battery or will it be ok?
Thanks very much
