As someone who&apos;s been in the habit for years myself, I have to say that tracks rather perfectly with my own battery life experiences. Gulp.<\/p>\n<p>So what to do instead? Well, according to Griffith the optimal state for your battery is roughly between 20% and 80% charge, meaning that the best course of action would be to charge your laptop fully before letting it discharge throughout the rest of the day, plugging it back in again when you reach the magic 20% mark.<\/p>\n<p>Terrible news for battery anxiety sufferers such as myself then, who reach for the charging cable at around 60% at best, and mostly leave it plugged in when possible to be extra sure.<\/p>\n<p>To be fair, as a fan of <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-gaming-laptop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">high-powered gaming laptops<\/a> I hardly expect my battery life to go much beyond a few hours, but it does make me wonder exactly how many laptop batteries I&apos;ve ruined simply by connecting the charger and leaving it plugged in whenever I&apos;m near a convenient plug socket.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fancy-box\">\n<div class=\"fancy_box-title\">Your next machine<\/div>\n<div class=\"fancy_box_body\">\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' >\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:56.25%;\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"xXhrEsP3nMY9e43WUFUxSC\" name=\"gaming-pc-group-shot.jpg\" caption=\"\" alt=\"Gaming PC group shot\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/got-a-laptop-plugged-in-24-7-you-could-be-ruining-your-battery-life-so-prepare-to-do-the-charger-dance.jpg\" mos=\"\" link=\"\" align=\"\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"\" height=\"\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" class=\"pinterest-pin-exclude\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption itemprop=\"caption description\" class=\"\"><span class=\"credit\" itemprop=\"copyrightHolder\">(Image credit: Future)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"fancy-box__body-text\"><a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-gaming-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best gaming PC<\/strong><\/a>: The top pre-built machines.<br \/>\n<a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/best-gaming-laptop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Best gaming laptop<\/strong><\/a>: Great devices for mobile gaming.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>There are steps you can take to make sure your laptop lasts as long as possible once it&apos;s unplugged, including dimming the screen brightness, culling power-draining background apps, and keeping your laptop away from excessive heat, all of which should help you stay away from the pesky power outlet for a bit longer.<\/p>\n<p>Still, there seems to be no getting away from the fact that leaving your laptop plugged in is essentially ruining one of the core functions of the device, and this is troubling news indeed.<\/p>\n<p>However, maybe I&apos;m acting like a spoiled brat here, but the idea of plugging and unplugging my laptop from the wall several times a day while keeping the charge percentage in the ideal range is the sort of thing that sets my teeth on edge.
