I just received this little guy and the battery wear is at 9% out of the box. A lot of people are having around 10%~ wear out of box also. I'm wondering how can I conserve battery life in the long run. According to this website, http:// should I discharge my laptop to 40% and charge up to 80% then stop it? I don't quite understand the article. Can someone dumb it down for me to maximize charge cycles?

So when it gets to around 30% I should charge to like 85% ish? That'll optimize it? Also, I have 1 year warranty on it so do you think I should just let it run down until around 10 months and request a new one because of the battery wear?
