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

Most batteries you can’t let die unless they’re user replaceable.

For example when a cellphone *dies* it actually has around 10-15% battery left. As a buffer to keep it protecting. 

Charging to 100% hasn’t been an issue since we stopped using NICAD. 

Most of what you’re citing is old  information people still parrot because they don’t keep up with technology.
