Battery Question

[jguy1288]

I will be going away for three months this summer, and I will not be taking my macbook with me. This means it will not be in use for the entirety of the three months. What should I do so that this has as little effect on the battery life as possible?

IMHO; charge it completely, then remove it and store in cool dry place.

Quick correction:

Charge/discharge it to 50%, then store it.

Yeah, this battery storage procedure is the same for most cell phone batteries as well. Good find ElDiablo!
