Battery usage

[Jfresh859]

So I have 2 1000mah ego batteries. Honestly one charge gets me through one day and right into the next.. I guess I'm a light vapor and it's a big battery, lol.

Anyways I've kinda kept one in my reserve slot, and have been recharging every night the main battery I use. Is this bad. Should i cycle the usage?

Alternate since the lifespan of the batteries will be constant (250-300 charge cycles). One day battery A, the next day battery B. Instead of having a dead battery in a year, you'll have both die about the same time (almost 2 years). So, you can upgrade to a whole new set one time rather than having a new and old at the same time.

In general it's best to cycle them. These are chemical based devices and don't have indefinite shelf life nor improve with age. They are meant to be used.

Awesome. Ok thanks guys.
I guess it's just easy to keep one as a back up only, because the batteries last FOREVER! I'm on day 2 for a single charge..
Anyways, I'll retire this guy for the day.
Thanks for the advice dudes
