Why would there be extra heat if the battery is fully charged? Shouldn't a well designed charge circuit disconnect once the battery hits 100%?



Emphasis on "well designed". The 500€ laptops I've experienced in the past weren't and you could murder the battery like this in couple months, no matter the brand (HP, Dell).
