Hey all,

Just out of curiosity, when my battery is fully charged (it says 100%) and I'm using the AC mains after a while the battery starts to drain even though it still says plugged in. It goes down to 95% and it starts to recharge itself back to 100%. Is this normal??

Cheers, Tim

Yes it's perfectly normal and a way to keep the battery in better shape.
