Battery is awesome. Even on the day I didn't use the battery mod at all. Very happy.
Actually just been reading about this. Apparently it's "not" recommended to discharge all the way, except for maybe once a month. I'm having a hard time, at least with the joy of the new device, resisting using the battery all the way, as I just came off an old X¹ that was getting 6 hours on a full charge...so I'm excited to see how far this battery takes me. Averaging around 24-30 hours, albeit I'm on wifi at home and (here in LA) have pretty good 4G most everywhere. With a light day yesterday, but off wifi most of the day, I'm still at 39% remaining after 25 hours.Is it suggested to "cycle" the battery - down to 10%, then charge, then down to 10% again?

Having said that, I'm going to adhere to all the blogs I've been reading this morning that say try to keep the phone between 40% and 80% for longer life. Going to charge now!
Can you link to what you have been reading? I usually go by battery university but wouldn't mind reading some others.Actually just been reading about this.
