It primarily comes down to you wasting battery cycles, since chargers usually
start charging again when the battery is >100% (even if it's just
99.9999999999....9%). The more cycles you waste, the faster your battery starts
degrading.
Gee, I thought this was misc@, not pleasexplainhowbatterieswork@.
