Battery, charge ipad battery

Question

Buena tarde.
He notado que últimamente cuando pongo a cargar el Ipad al llegar al 64% de la carga inmediatamente marca 100% y al desconectarla me marca el porcentaje que realmente lleva. Esto es normal o es una falla y como se puede corregir.
Gracias

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
The iPad comes fully charged out of the box. There have been a number of threads on here about charging, charging cycles, what that all means. You can search for them in the Search Discussions, more options in the upper right corner.
The bottom-line, going through a full charging the Lithium Ion battery monthly, that is run it down until it shuts down (about 1% charge) and fully recharge is more for calibrating the charge indicator. Lithium Ion batteries do not have a "memory" as old rechargables did. So you can feel comfortable in recharging at any time, as Meg does nightly. Lithium Ion batteries have a life that is debatable, some say 300-500 full charge cycles, some say 1,000. That equates to at least two or more years of normal use.
So, use your iPad, charge when you feel like it, occasionally give it a full charge cycle, but DO NOT run it down to shut off and then force it to come back up and continue. That will damage the battery's internal circuitry.
Hope this helps.
