Laptop battery for dell latitude d830 maintain advice

Today I went back home to get the last purchase I made on the Internet: a new battery for dell latitude d830 on my laptop. The reason is that my standard battery died, or improperly maintained (which I doubt). And I could not resist, until the autonomy of my laptop up to 10 minutes. So I searched the net to find some guidelines and tips to avoid and the same will happen again with my new battery. Surely some of the elements that surprised at least me. I hope he comes good this short list. First note that these guidelines should be followed only type of laptop lithium-ion (Li-ion), which bring all laptops today, as other batteries such as nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd) or nickel hydride (Ni-MH), should be treated differently. Avoid common full charge-discharge: Despite what many may think, the charge and discharge cycles are detrimental to our Compaq Presario v3000 battery (based on Li-ion). Previously it was reported that was used in nickel-, which had a so-called memory effect that these cycles will do, but now it makes sense to them frequently. There is one exception: although it is not advisable to abuse the previous cycles, it is good for the battery fully discharge and recharge to 100% from time to time (especially if you do not use it), for measuring internal load properly . When not in use for some time, store in a cool (not in the places you can reach high temperatures or exposed to the sun, like a car). It would also be desirable to maintain a certain amount (between 40 and 60% is ideal). It is very important not to keep the hp 12-cell ks526aa fully discharged for a long period of time, as it may stop working. It is not harmful to use your laptop connected to the mains, while we have the battery inserted in it. Also as we have a small team of UPS to save our courts work possible. However, as in the previous paragraph mentioned how bad it is to keep the battery fully discharged, is not recommended (very bad) to keep the battery at 100% forever. Therefore, although it is not wrong to use the laptop plugged in and the battery in place, the ideal is to unplug the charger when the battery is above 90% and reconnect when about 10%. The battery lasts longer if you move (ie, uploads and downloads) that if is rarely used.
