Hey guys

I have a li-ion laptop battery, and i'm wondering whether or not to I need to discharge it completly before I recharge it again. I'm mostly at my desk often, so I don't have a traveling issue. To what percentage should I use my battery until I should charge it back in? 40%? Also, I heard that if you keep the AC plugged in, even at 100%, your battery won't loose any charge cycles. On the other hand, I also heard that keeping your battery charged all the time will deplete the life. Could you guys help me?

Thanks!
