Now going back to something else you said just above;

"To be blunt, I don't think your methodology is worth the risk when the device is only going to be used for roughly two years and 750 times covers that two years."

Question, how did we get to 750 charge cycles? It has been noted many times that the battery is expected to be charged approximately 500 times (based on 100% of rated capacity charges - i.e. to 4.2V as an assumption). If that is so, then the battery will reach "end of life" only in 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 years (too early). That doesn't sound like what I would consider a reasonable projection since the phone is targeted for a 2 year lifespan (using the "New every two" marketing plan as a frame of reference).

Because the average person probably doesn't drop bellow 33% every day. Hence 750 charges. I wasn't being scientific. Just using simple and realistic math.

"You want to charge from 60% to 100% so you spend LESS TIME in Stage 1 charging and do less damage to the battery. The sweet spot is actually 85% to 100%."

That was pure sarcasm. Kinda of funny you waited this long to question/mention it.

In other words, help me to believe your point of view as I have tried to help you believe mine.

You either understand how graphite works from both an electrical and chemical standpoint or you don't. I do not have the time to teach you two years of chemistry and two year of semi conductor design.

To be blunt, you don't want to believe me. The fact that I already told you that I concur applying commercial grade theory to the battery would extend the purely chemical side of the battery and the fact that I stated, in my opinion, it isn't worth the risk of possibly cracking the graphite of the battery, not once but twice no less, means you are simply posting to either get the last word in or for me to declare you the winner.

So which one is going to make you happier? Because this horse already got beat to death and I am tired of going in a circle with nothing new coming out of it.

so now that my dev bionic is white light, im guessing it needs a ton of time on the charger to come back to life or is it gone for ever till i buy it a new battery?
