    Default iBook battery, extending its life

    Hi,

    Does anybody have any practical tips for extending battery life
    please?

    For example, should the battery have a cycle of being fully
    charged/discharged at regular intervals?

    Any advice to this newbie will be most welcome. TIA.

    Yes, please accept my apologies for time-wasting. I sent a cancel but
    either it wasn't recognised or it went too late.

    It dawned on me like a 'clue by four' that this topic has probably
    been done to death in the past.

    I may return later with more pertinent questions <g>
