Heat kills laptop batteries

faster than anything else. Fully charged Li-Ion batteries in warm laptops are the worst condition. Leaving a laptop on bed often blocks heat sink vent and makes the laptop much warmer. Some battery management software can charge a battery to 9x% most of the time and occasionally 100% to prolong usable life.

Recalled Li-Ion batteries are defective batteries. They caught on fire because of internal short circuit and failed internal cutoff protection which generates enormous heat. It's not user errors. Most unprotected batteries will burst into flame or explode if short circuited.

The best practical way is to place a laptop on a hard surface to improve ventilation and use optimized power management features from processor/operating system to lower the overall temperature.
