1) if i want to play stop playing for a few hours, do u all recommend me to completely shut off the psp ?
or
put the psp to standby mode for a few hours?
2)then, must my battery be low then i can charge the battery ? or can i charge the battery even though it is half full?
3)then, how long does it take to charge a battery (for a battery that is left only 1 bar)
4) can i charge my battery even though it is only half empty? Or must i wait till the low battery indicator lights up before charging it?
5)when i charge the battery, must i surely charge the battery till it is completely full then use the PSP ? Or can i charge it till its maybe 3/4 full then resume using the PSP?
6) if I am playing a game halfway and I need to attend to something for about 1 hour or so, can i just simply put it to Standby mode(meaning slide up the power switch once and let go)? Or is it better that i save the game and turn off the psp completely ? this is because i feel that the standby mode doesnt really consume battery power, But I am just afraid that putting the PSP on standby mode for too long will damage any hardware or the battery ?
7) before I want to turn off the PSP completely, do I need to exit the game to go back to the home menu first then turn off the PSP?
Lithium Ion batteries generally last longer when stored at cold temperatures. Unlike Nickel rechargable batteries, it doesn't have a memory loss defect, meaning you can charge it as much as you want and whenever you want without reducing its quality. However, its best to charge the battery when it's half full or 20% depleted as the quality reduces when charged when it's fully flat.
