PIXMA TR150 Will mains power affect battery life?

Hi all

 

just had a question about the battery on the tr150. Will it affect battery health if I always have the printer connected to the mains with the battery attached? Or does connecting to the mains override the battery?

That makes sense. I will remove it. Thank you!

Connecting to the mains charges the battery. Lithium Ion batteries are best not being charged constantly after achieving full charge. It affects battery life. This is the case with notebook computers and other rechargeable lithium-ions.  How long is too long? No definite answer. Best to take out the battery if using it plugged into mains power for lengthy periods.

That makes sense. I will remove it. Thank you!
