Battery Charger
I have the Dell Inspiron 5402 laptop.
Is it okay to keep it plugged in?
Is there some reliable source (perhaps yourself) that can answer my question. I get different answers when I check.
Thanks,
Jerry

It is not a good idea to keep a battery on continuous charge, no -- some systems allow cutting off the charge at a certain percentage, which is a good idea.
That said, a four year old system like this one likely has a battery that's on the down side of its life cycle - if it's lasted this long, any change at this point likely makes little or no difference.
