Introduction
There are a few things that can be going on when the charge life of our devices change. One big factor that plays a role in battery life is when and how often you charge the battery. The best way to make sure your battery charges properly and maintain its lifespan is to charge it when it is dead. A lot of times batteries can go bad when they are charged too much and too often. Many times these problems are not the battery at all. In fact phone chargers are just as likely to go bad.
