I just wanna hear from you guys that plugging the power brick all the time

Well, I'm kind of the guy who 90% will plug the charger on my laptop because.. Why bother discharging it while you're just staying on one place. Can't know, but my battery life's only last for two-three years (which, I know, it's basically the battery lifespan anyway). But I kind of... Why in the f my uncle's laptop battery are still as good as it seems. Same exact specs, he even bought that few months earlier than mine, just different use-case. I've got two laptops (one old Aspire 4253 with E-350 APU) and the current one that the specs are below. I kind of game almostly everyday on my laptop, mostly Dota 2. Yes, it reach 60 degrees easily on the internals. I suppose that's why my battery's killed so fast. Twice. Both laptops have similar battery lifespan, only for 2-2.5 years before it just went die and aren't usable anymore.

What I want to know is, for the bois who nearly-constantly plugging their laptop even if that's full, how does your guys battery going for you so far? People who using the 'battery limiter' like it's limiting battery charge to 60% are welcome too. I'd like to hear it. Because I just bought a new battery (cheapo, 5.86% wear level on first use, won't expect it'll run that long. As long as it's usable to keep my works saved safely) and I intend to keep it as healthy as possible for any possible time length.

Welp, dang it I'm just curious of other people how they would killed their own battery just like me, and on me it did happened on TWO laptops despite I tried the best to keep it healthy enough. Is it on the reliability of every brand or it's just me who did it wrong and... Near-constantly heating the battery while it's full because I usually game on it like, 3-6 hours a day. Indeed, cok cok. Wkwk.

But different case with my phone. I barely game on my phone, and I always charge it on 30-50% (and yes, same habit on laptop either), of course with monthly calibration. And even my old Xiaomi Redmi 5A (sold to a friend like, half the price) still running good despite got reduced battery life.

After I killed the already-'leaking' (I dunno what's the good language in english lol) battery on this E5-475G by forcing it to Dota while brownout happened. Well, yeah. Shit happened anyway.

After twice killing batteries, probably I'd go for a gaming PC instead next time I'm getting upgrades.
