(granted if you hooked up a led or small motor directly to the battery contacts and ran it to 0volt, then you would have problems) the phone will only drain to a certain level, beyond that the pwr-good signal is invalid. |
like i said, lithium batteries have zero memory effect, so conditioning a lithium ion battery is useless. conditioning a battery is an old school method used on ni-cad batteries to avoid creating a memory effect, thus lowering the battery capacity. i know it's hard, but you gotta shake them old habits.
