You may find this post I made a few months ago helpful, PPS: Here are two questions that were floating in my mind:ġ)While on adaptive mode, will letting the laptop plugged to a power source wear out the battery?Ģ)What is a mode that won't charge the battery to full capacity? I know about Advanced Charge and Peak Shift do, but I am having trouble understanding how they work (even after reading the instructions) and I am not sure those will help in what I want to accomplish. Thus, I am calling on my fellow redditors to clarify modern laptop charging and help me find the best settings to prolong the life of my battery given my above characteristics of usage. Like when I unplug the power, the battery should kick in but I always supposed there was a delay and for that reason, laptops only ran on battery. It might have been a while since I research battery charging so this kinda seems sketchy to me. On the other hand, there are those that say that there is no need to limit the battery charge as it will automatically stop charging at 100% and use ONLY use the external power. I can find the setting to enable this option but it doesn't appear to be applied. 55% - 80%) and restart charging when it down to a lower threshold (ie. Some say to charge up to a certain threshold below 100% (ie.
I read up on the issue and I found conflicting advice. The device is plugged to a usb-c dock that provides power for 3-4 hours per day and I want to make sure this kind of use is not wearing out the battery. Most time is spent on a combination of having chrome open (with a bunch of tabs) a couple excel windows and a couple of PDF documents). I am not exporting videos or anything that heavy. My main objective is the longevity of the battery without compromising the performance of the laptop. I have looked around and read the dell instruction about the Dell Power Management software and I remain confused.
