[wlisik]

Ive bought mine one month ago and havnt charged it since (charging cable is unpacked in package still). So Im wondering: how much will my battery last? And do I need to connect charger to wall - mounted socket or has to be USB?

You can charge the keyboard by plugging the Lightning cable into the computer, the same way as if you were pairing the keyboard to the computer. Any charger that works with any Lightning device (iPhone, iPad, etc.) would also work fine.

USB charging is fine. The battery life is impressive on these magic keyboards... It took me about 6 months to run down to 20%. That said, mine just runs permanently plugged in now.

Do its always at 100%. Is it healthy for battery?

Maybe it's healthy, maybe it's not... Life's too short, and it always stays on my desk anyway. However, maybe I'll try it wireless now, as the cable can get annoying if I ever move it.
