4. Discharge the battery once a month

This might seem contradictory but here is why: the modern laptop batteries (lithium-ion batteries) are known as the smart batteries because they can tell you how much it still has till it dies completely (e.g., 15 minutes remaining, 1h30min remaining). But, this feature may not function properly after many shallow discharges.  To restore its powers and help keep it functioning well, manufacturers suggest fully discharge the laptop battery once a month then keep it charge peacefully.
