Battery tips for long lifespan:

 * Do not leave your iPad in your car or in direct sunlight. Heat destroys the battery's ability to charge efficiently.
 * At least once a month, put your iPad through a complete charging cycle (let battery go down to under 20% and then recharge completely).
 * When charging iPad using a computer's USB connector, the iPad must be in "sleep mode" but the computer must be powered on and __not__ in sleep mode.
 * If your iPad feels "hot" after it's been charging, try taking it out of its case next time your charge it.

Battery tips for a long charge life:

 * Adjust your screen brightness. Go to Settings > Brightness & Wallpaper > Move the slider to a comfortable setting -- usually about 30-50% indoors.
 * Turn off WiFi and/or Bluetooth so your iPad will not be searching for a signal. You can also change your connection status by going to Settings and turning on Airplane Mode,
 * Other tips: minimize Location Services, allow fewer push notifications, and keep what you can update as current as possible.

Creating folders, using AirPlay, home sharing and so much more! http://appsineducation.blogspot.com/2011/04/50-really-useful-ipad-2-tips-and-tricks.html
