Ight guys so i just bought a new macbook and according to the guy at fs you can over charge the battery, is this true... cause i dont always wanna be therewhile its charging to time and unplug it and id like to charge it well on it
 
no, you can not overcharge the battery. your macbook has smart built in mechanisms which will prevent this. Last time i heard about overcharging problems was like 10 years ago!
 
The only overcharge of a MacBook battery is when you buy* a replacement 😉






*other laptop OEMs screw you on price as well
