Why wearing out more? I’d been planning on pulling out an old charger to slow charge overnight. | ||||||||

I suppose the previous comment was likely saying more compared to not charging overnight, and fast charging in the morning. I would also have guessed the slow charging was better, but that is an uninformed opinion. I'd be quite interested in what people think. An extra dilemma - often if I'm around the house or the office all day, I'll just plug in my phone every time I see it reach about 70%, and unplug when it reaches 80% (this is easier to spot if you have low-power mode on for an iPhone because the screen lights up at 80% when low-power mode is turned off). Is it worse to do that 2 or 3 times, compared to just charging to 100% and leaving it on the charger all day. Is being at 100% all day, but not using any (fractions of) charge cycles, worse than doing a few shallow discharges? Of course, I don't think it really matters, but it's the kind of thing that I wonder and then do when I remember. | ||||||||
