Is there anyway to confirm they are legit Samsung cells? Batteries seem too ripe for counterfeits.

Not sure what they're called but I see them dragging huntsman spiders around.

They don't look as bad as the tarantula hawks but they sound like a helicopter.

Maybe the attitude to run the battery low before charging it comes from NiCd batteries which have the so called memory effect [1].

Could education be the answer? I've never bought an iPhone, do they include a few paragraphs about proper battery care?

Has anyone done studies on the effects of cashback on consumer behavior?

How about measuring the prison instead, reform more crooks, the guards get a pay bonus. However, knowing how incentive schemes are normally gamed, they will probably resort to lobotomising the inmates.
