The use case here is plugged in and, presumably, using the laptop, not storing. Is 50% still the ideal charge state, in that case?

- leetcrew 7y agomaybe not, but it's probably not much worse than the optimal charge state. you want to keep a lipo cell at 3.7v for optimal longevity. usually this corresponds to above 20% charge but below 80%, but the concept of "charge level" is sort of arbitrary. the manufacturer has already set safety buffers on either end of the spectrum, but the exact amount will vary based on risk tolerance, application, etc.
