Battery Charge Limit #270

Open myhousece opened 2 months ago

myhousece commented 2 months ago

Problem

I saw that there are already requests for this feature here, but I would like to make this new addition, because I think it is extremely important for notebooks, especially those that have this feature, like my notebook "ROG-Zephyrus-G15-GA503RM".

That would be to be able to limit the battery charge to better protect its health.

Proposal

I have already searched in several distributions, environments, Gnome, KDE and I don't see it. There is even a native option in KDE Plasma, but when I activate it, it only works while the notebook is on and if I turn it off or restart it, it goes back to 100% charge. It does not maintain the 60%, 80% configuration. And I believe that this feature is extremely important, it would be a great joy to be able to enjoy this feature in Elementary OS, a distro that I have a lot of affection for.

Upower recently added that functionality into their dbus interface (here), once ubuntu 24.04 gets upower 1.90.5 we can easily implement that feature.
