Probably stupid question - can I recharge the dx90's battery every night or should I wait for it to run down before charging? Will recharging it every day affect the battery negatively?
I was a certified Nokia repair tech at my former place of business and let me give you guys some pointers about Li ion batteries. All Li Ion batteries in general should be depleted fully to do a full recharge. On the DX90. Use it all the way till it drains or at it's very last bit of charge and when you charge it. Charge it fully before use. Either deplete the battery by using the device or charge the battery full. One or the other..
Charging the battery to 40 to 80% is ok but I don't recommend just keeping it at 40 to 80% at all times. The battery is made for full charge capacity and that is what it should be charged to every time. This maximizes the battery life and use of the battery. I actually extended the battery life of the stock battery by 40 minutes or so by doing just this.. It is when your battery depletes and it stays that way for a long time is when the battery can start to loose it's charge and quality.
