Re: How to prepair a virgin battery?

I don't really think that you have to worry about over-charging the device... I can tell you that when I take my phone off the charger after leaving it on it all night, the phone is ice cold with a green light whereas when it is charging, it gets extremely warm. The device probably stops the current flow when its fully charged.

The difference is... if you have a battery that is almost completely charged and then you put it on a charger, its going to try charging the battery even though its full and I could see how that could damage the cells.

Honestly though, the only device I've ever had from a Nokia 3390 Gold to a SE T300 to the T610 to the Sidekick II to the Sidekick III to the 6700 to the 6800 to the 6900, only the Sidekick II ever had a severe loss of charge... the other phones still charged just as well as when I bought them even if they were sitting on a shelf with a completely drained battery for months (T610).
