    Delete the running apps and disable mobile data and it's good to go for 8 hours at 25%. No drama! Ever! :bigsmile:

    I start to think about recharging at about 30%.

    I don't panic. If I forget my charger for a weekend away, then I turn my phone off when it reaches 50% and only ever turn it on to make calls or check for texts.

    If I do have my charger handy, then I allow the battery to deplete to 5% and plug it in. Playing Candy Crush Saga will deplete battery quickly, so I have to just not play for a day (shock horror!) if I need to prolong battery life.

    I worry about all sorts of things, a phone is not one of them. Though it did frustrate the hell out of me when I realised yesterday afternoon that I left my phone at work and had to go back for it (only because I don't have a landline and needed to make calls last night).

    I keep mine charged up because I never know when I might wanna go for a run, or a bike ride, or kayaking, and if I don't have the GPS turned on and Endomondo tracking then it doesn't really "count", right? ;)

    I only get nervous when it's about to die and my Son's not with me.

    My Husband works out of town mon-fri, so I'm the only contact for his daycare.

    If we're all home I couldn't care less.
