Hi, i have Acer 3830TG This laptop is amazing performance wise and also battery wise but only one disadvantage that is quite crucial to my purpose of use is the built-in battery.I often use the laptop to play high performance required games for an extended period of time and this is done while being chargedI found out that constantly fully charged battery will not last long Is there a way to be on AC power and not charge the battery, (laptop only running on ac power and battery is disabled) thanks in advance
Most laptops will allow you to just remove the battery and run straight off of ac power. Having had numerous batteries go bad on me in my lifetime, I'll be the first one to tell you that having it constantly plugged in definitely kills them.
Don't worry about it. ALL modern laptops (and most other battery-powered rechargeable electronic devices) have microprocessor-controlled charging circuits—these days, it's literally impossible to over-charge a battery because the charging circuit is automatically disconnected as soon as the battery is fully charged. ~~ ScienceMikey
The battery pack is not removable? How odd. Laptops with modern lithium-cycle batteries have very sophisticated power management circuits. Once fully charged, these circuits cut off the charging current to the battery. You can't overcharge the battery pack. What's killing your batteries is heat. Heat is the great enemy of laptop batteries. The hottest place most people keep their batteries is inside the laptop. If you can't remove the battery pack when you're running on AC and gaming, you'll just have to accept the diminished life.
