Joy SchwabachWorcester Telegram & GazetteA techie friend and I had an argument over phone batteries. I said you should wait until a battery gets down to 20% before charging it. He said that’s wrong. Turns out he’s right. The old nickel-cadmium batteries had memories that could get messed up if you didn’t fully drain them, at least once in a while. But lithium batteries do better when kept at 50% and above, because they stay cooler when they’re not working as hard.

Best of luck — you’re doing amazing work on this journey! You’ve got this, Joy! I can’t wait to hear how it goes.
