What's The Best Way to Charge The Touch?

I've been just playing with the touch and its features all day until the battery drops down to below 10% and pretty much shut itself off, and then I plug it in for about 3 hours for a full charge. Is this a good method?
Oh and btw, Ive been cranking about 3 hours of wifi life on mines, which isnt all to bad considering that even with a laptop Im lucky to get 1 full hour!

With any device with a Lithium-Ion or Lithium-Polymer battery, it's best to keep it "topped off" rather than letting it frequently run all the way down. Such batteries only have a limited number of charge cycles, so the more you allow it to run completely down, the shorter the battery life will probably be. So while you should just use it as you need to and don't worry too much about it, don't deliberately run the battery down regularly. For more information, see Apple's iPod Battery FAQ.
Regards.

    Whatever you do in terms of charging will not destroy your iPod.
    Many people charge when it's convenient. Others just connect the iPod for syncing to the computer and leave it charging overnight, regardless of the ramaining charge level. Life of modern batteries is measured in full charge cycles. A charge cycle is either a full charge or any combination of small charges that adds up to 100% charge.
    The only real recommendations I've seen (including from Apple) is to keep the batteries away from heat and have a full charge once a month. For this, discharge the battery to about 20%, then fully charge.

    what's the best way to charge my iphone 6 for the first time ?

    Just charge it to 100%.
    Use it on the charger when possible. Recharge when the battery is around 50% when possible. Avoid to let the battery go down below 20%.

  • What's the best way to charge my iPhone 5

    Hi what is the best way to charge my IPhone 5?  Should I wait for battery to completely drain first?

    NO.  Lithium batteries degrade far faster with deep cycle discharge/charges than with shallow cycles and more frequent charging.
    Try to avoid deep cycles as much as possible.  Otherwise, charge it whenever is convenient to do so.  You cannot overcharge it so you can leave it plugged in when convenient to do so as well.  Nor can you charge it too frequently, and even a partial charge is fine as well.
    I have chargers at home, at work and in the car, and plug mine in whenever I know I am going to be staying in one of those places for awhile, and I never really pay any attention to the charge state when I do so.

  • What is the best way to charge the ipod

    Hey guys im sure there is 1000s of these posts but i couldnt find them, so which is the best way to charge my ipod video? using a wall adapter or usb, or it doesnt matter, i have been told with some players using usb kills the battry life.
    Thanks,
    Mike

    i have been told with some players using usb kills the battry life.
    It would do just as much damage (if any) if you were hooked up to a wall outlet.
    Both of them to me are the same. They both charge about the same time and last about the same.

  • Best way to charge iPad mini

    What is the best way to charge my iPad mini ? When I play Internet games at the same time using FaceTime my battery drain fast is it normal ?

    The mini came with a 5W charger. If you are going to use the mini like you described, suggest you get a 12W charger like that for the iPad 3 & 4. The 12W charger should maintain your battery charge level.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • 16gb 4g best way to charge

    Just purchased 4g 16gb iPod touch and am wondering what is the best way to charge it...have been charging thru computer usb.  Is a 5v wall charger better??  10v??  How about a car charger with the same volts?? Thanks

    Thank you for your replies...I got mixed up and should have said watts instead of volts.  So a 5W wall or car charger would be just fine then if I decide to purchase these as well.  I saw a 12W charger on the apple site that says it is compatible with the ipod 4...does that size mean it will charge faster, thanks again.

  • What's he best way to include Adobe PDFs on my blog?

    What's he best way to include Adobe PDFs on my blog?
    I create worksheets as a teacher and would like to share them from my blog. Currently I am linking to Scribd etc to share PDFs. If I upload the worksheets as an image is there a way to adjust the size/resolution of the PDF for easier viewing? 
    Thanks!

    PDFs are just files. Can you upload files to your blog space? If yes, just upload the PDFs then, in a blog entry, provide the web link (URL) for each file (PDF).
    Or, place the PDFs into your free acrobat.com "files" storage (5GB free). You have one as you have an Adobe ID (needed to make your post here eh).
    https://cloud.acrobat.com/
    You can have acrobat.com provide a "share" link to the PDF. Place that into a blog entry.
    Or - same idea as above (use a "file share" service) -- Microsoft's OneDrive, Adobe's Creative Cloud, Google drive, DropBox, others ...
    Be well...

  • What is the best way to charge my iPod Touch 5G?

    So I got my iPod Touch 5th Generation on my birthday, December 29th. I know, and I've heard, that charging the battery fully from start to finish is good about once a month, as in you drain your battery then charge it to 100%. But what if I do that everysingle time I charge? I want my battery to charge the best way possible. Will it over charge it or something, if I always have the battery die, and then charge it completely? Please help! Thanks!

    Still doesn't matter.
    You can ask as many ways as you like, but it still doesn't matter.
    Charge it any way you like.  Just let it go through at least one full cycle each month.
