I've been debating the different strategies of maximizing battery life and cost effectiveness...
If you have multiple batteries, do you use one repeatedly, or cycle them all through the count evenly?
I have them all labeled, when and where I got them, so I know which one is which. I have been of the opinion that using one most often and repeatedly (when I'm not using them all of course) means that only one battery will reach the end of its life cycle st a time, making it easier to replace.
The rest will stay in a state of 50% discharge until ready for use.
Does this make sense, or would it be more wise to use (and thus exercise) all the of the batteries evenly? With the obvious downside being that they will all reach the end of their life cycle and have to be replaced at roughly the same time?
