Hey thanks Jerry,  I was wondering about what charging protocol I should follow.

 

I have left my phone on the charger overnight, since I've drained it down by the end of the day before I go to bed. 😛   Was hoping that was okay to do.

 

I'm wondering since you said it was okay to charge it any time I want,  can I put it on the charger if I know in advance I can't leave it charging up to a full charge.   For instance, if the battery is getting low, but I only have like an hour to put it on the charger.   Or should it always be charged fully before taking it off the charger?

 

Thanks.

Foxster,

 

It's okay to charge it anytime, even for an hour or so at a time.  Li Ion batteries do not have a memory like Ni Cad batteries do.  In fact it's better to have the battery well charged because there is evidence that the phone MIGHT do some funny things when the battery is to low, let's say, when it's only 15-20% charged.

Foxster. Glad the device is doing well for you. And I hope you are a Bills fan, otherwise you are probably quite bummed out. I'm an Eagles' fan, so it feels good to actually be happy on Monday for once. :smileyhappy:

Thanks Jerry for the battery advice. Glad to know I can charge it whenever I have the opportunity.

 

Yep Philly I am indeed a Bills fan, which is finally a good year to say so.   LOL    So far anyway.  The Bills like to get our hopes up before dashing them. 😛
