Hi well, I have a question and I would like you to advise me, for laptops in which the battery cannot be removed, how can I extend the useful life of my battery? Since I occupy it almost all day.
Unfortunately you are incorrect! Lithium Ion Batteries can be charged in any state, full or half full to maximum or not and will still work just fine without any memory effect. When a rechargeable battery (any rechargeable battery) is full it requires less amperes from the charging circuit to charge it, it will therefore only require mA or even uA's to keep it topped up so will NOT be stressed at all nor will the charging circuit or charger itself.
If you were to run the battery right down, the charging circuit would need to supply between 1 amp and 4 amps depending on laptop model, this DOES stress everything including the battery and charger creating LOTS of heat.
If you don't believe me, feel the temp of your charger after 10-15 minutes when the battery is empty compared to when the battery is full. Note when the battery is full and after an hour or so (with the charger still plugged in) and when the charger has had time to cool, the charger will feel much cooler. I do know what I am talking about so if you don't want to take my advice that is up to you.
