Afaik it’s damaging the battery if you get close to 100 and 0% of charge.

So I’m wondering if there is a way to limit this to maybe 90 and 10% in order to prolong the life of the battery.

Only on few occasions I would need the full capacity of the battery and when I don’t need it, I don’t want to ruin my battery because I don’t think about the power brick.

    There was a framework tool release recently that added this function! I can post the link later if you remind me. May be Linux only though

    Not really, Framework has adjusted it so that 100% and 0% are relatively safe levels, it will not get undervolted or overcharged.

      that’s not the point of a charging limit 🙄

        Yes, of course you can limit charging if you want to be even more conservative, I’m just saying that leaving at in the default settings is completely fine and won’t cause any damage. Most battery degradation is anyway caused by charge-discharge cycles and not by charging it to 100% and mostly keeping it there.
