Keeping it topped up doesn't count as a full "cycle charge". There's about 300 to 500 discharge cycles to a battery. If you let it run right out, that's one discharge. If you keep "topping it up," it counts as a partial discharge.
Well no because if you only use half the power , then charge it up instead of using the half that was already in there you are charging energy into it you don't need. If you do that twice you've basically wasted a full charge.
