Charges past battery maintain number by 4-5% #295

Open aliuexe opened 3 months ago

aliuexe commented 3 months ago

I set battery maintain to 80, and it always charges up to 85% for some reason. Better yet, when I restart my laptop, it shows up at 88-90% post-restart.

Set battery maintain to 80 Plug in MacBook Charge past 80, ends at around 85

I expect it to stop at 80%, or +- 1-2% that range. Not up to 5% over :(

I think that is normal because similar app like bclm also has the same phenomenom. The approach is to set the level to lower by 5%. In your case, you may set to 75%. When you reboot the charging is enabled until till this battery app is started, so that's normal too. I might be wrong because I'm just a user like you. It seems that the forum is not well maintained.
