Battery Life tips?

[Medve]

Hello all!

I just got a laptop with a battery sealed inside the housing, since I am using it mostly all day during weekends, I more then likely will use the laptop plugged in.

My question is this.

 

If my laptop is plugged in all day, does it affect its batterys overall life? (I know to some extend it should, but windows 10 says when I reach a 100% with the battery that it is 'plugged in, not charging')

 

I had an old laptop before this with removeable battery, when I was at it for a couple of hours I removed the battery and put it back in when I went to college on Mondays. I am asking this since I just want to take care of my battery as much as I can so it can last me years on end.

 

Thank you for the answers/suggestions!

It's best to remove the battery if it's going to be plugged in for a really long time. When a laptop is fully charged and plugged in, it doesn't straight up stops taking electricity from the battery. It will use a bit then charge it back up to 100%. I have an Acer Travelmate that used to be my neighbours and it was plugged to the wall for pretty much all of it's life. Because of that, it can provide now a meager 20 minutes of battery.

So basically I take out my laptop battery, which means taking the bottom of my laptop off and disconnecting it from the motherboard. I mean Ill do it no problem but it's a pain to do it each Friday and reconnect the battery each Sunday night.

 

Will I suffer major battery life loss If I leave it plugged in all weekend?

 

I have a Sony Vaio Fit 13a. So I will have to remove the rubber pads as well for the bottom and re apply it each time.

 

Or may I just use my laptop till it's fully charged than take it off for a couple of hours and plug it back when it is around 70-60%?
