Does it help restore the laptop battery's capacity and make it last longer? My battery was barely lasting 30 minutes when I decided to try doing this last week. Now the next time I discharged it on a full charge, it lasted about 40 minutes. The power info icon in Linux now says my battery has a capacity of 17Wh (up from 12Wh). Will this larger capacity last for some time? I hear that discharging 100% then recharging the battery completely is bad in the long run esp if done often.. anyone know more about it?
