Why should you never charge a battery to full?

For that matter what is it with batteries that make them so fickle?

You can’t charge them to full, but at the same time you can’t let them die, but at the same time you should wait for them to die before you charge since constant charging is bad, but at the same time not charging enough is also bad like what’s the real deal with batteries T_T

Think of it like filling a balloon over and over.

Sure, you can inflate it to max every time, but each one will stretch and wear the balloon until it eventually pops.

Inflate it to 75% or 80%, though, and you’re going to get less wear and many more inflation cycles before it fails.
