At the risk of sounding overly anxious, is it safe to leave a MBP plugged in for up to a week at a time?
I realise like the iPhone it has smart power management to prolong the battery life but I've noticed over the last few days the battery life % in the monitor starts dropping. Then, the following day it will be back at 100% - it is left on power the whole time. It's behaving as if it isolates the battery which naturally loses charge over a few days - then the MBP just decides to top it back up to 100 which surely can't be good!
Am I worrying about nothing or should I just unplug it and put the battery through the proper cycles it was designed for?
