On several occasions I've been able to leave it plugged in over night and continue to use it while plugged in. Even then the xfce4-power-manager periodically comes up with a notification that the battery is charging. That usually lasts for a few seconds, during which it shows that batter at 0% or 95%. After that pause it then goes back to a notification saying fully charged, and a check shows 99%. ACPI shows some fluctuation with design capacity and last full capacity over time.
