Anyone just do daily battery swaps vs plugging in and charging?

I have only had a it for a few days, but I'm a pretty big fan of this method. Any of you that have it since been doing this the whole time?

will the battery door get loose?
 
I don't have an extra battery. If I did I would use it as needed. When I'm at work I just top off with a charge.

I swap batteries everyday. Much faster and I can continue to do what I need to without waiting to charge. The battery door design is amazing, and no it has not gotten loose. I'm positively sure they did many tests like they did with their military grade tests to ensure its reliability. I don't think I'll have any issues with the battery door breaking in the future.

Just a recommendation, don't wait until the battery is fully dead to swap batteries. I'd swap at like 10%. Just better for the lifespan of the battery. Lithium-ion batteries don't like being completely drained.
 
I don't have an extra battery but I want one.

I generally only have to charge when I'm sleep or when I'm driving using navigation. I get around 16 hours and 5.5-6 hours of SOT every day. So I'm content.

That's a really good idea. You don't want to charge the phone while using it. Turning it off is best. The battery gets warm.

I installed battery temp app, it's eye-opening and also the app to read voltage. The Li-ion battery is full at 4.3V, 80% at about 4.0V and I always recharge at 3.7V while it can go down much lower.

A while back I found an app that controls how the phones being charged. Standard settings were to rapid charge until 80% then trickle charge the last 20%.forget what it's called though.
