Hi,
Thanks. I'm a little weary as last time I had left it this long, I booted
it up the day before travel and it was fine. Two days later, on arrival, I
started it up to find it wouldn't boot. I was sure it was something to do
with leaving it for so long. I had to reinstall the operating system to get
it going again.
But I'll give the battery a couple times over just to be sure that doesn't
die on me at least.
Best,

Hi Hussein.
The battery may have lost some charge during the period of non usage, so it
would be advisable to fully recharge, then discharge the battery for a
couple of cycles to get the maximum life from the pack. Lithium Ion
batteries don't suffer from any memory affect issues, however if left unused
for a long period of time will eventually discharge themselves and will need
warming up to regain their maximum efficiency.
All the best, Ibrahim.
