[Question] Does the changing of SMC value work on M1 macbooks? #9

Open RinMinase opened 2 years ago

This is just a question to ask if anyone has tried successfully changing the SMC value (charge limiter) on an M1.

I tried it and it didn't work as there is no SMC in M1 Macs.

This one does work: https://github.com/actuallymentor/battery Seems to use SMC as well.

Edit: that's not true, they only use it to read the battery level. Seems you need bclm: https://github.com/zackelia/bclm

Edit2: seems like that doesn't work either: https://github.com/zackelia/bclm/issues/23 Sorry for the noise.
