    Oh by the way, if you want the most life out of a laptop battery (or indeed any lithium ion battery), apparently one of the best ways is to rarely charge it above 50% capacity. Asus bundles software with their newer laptops that allows you to do this. (I wonder if MorphOS has the capability of controlling charging from the OS... probably not.)

    That, and the basics. Don't leave the battery in really hot places, exercise it once in a while and don't keep it fully charged all of the time, let it completely drain at least once every couple of months, and don't leave it flat for more than a day or two. And for long term storage when not being used, 40% capacity and a cool dry place is best.

    Now, if only I could replace the battery on my Pebble Time...
