Battery Life Lipo:
- Run it in by fully charge it 2-3 times, (deplete it with normal use)
- Normal use keep it between 20-80%, write yourself a script or something to stop charging manually/automatically
- Deplete/fully charge it quarterly or twice a year to give the bms a change to balance the cells.
- acky 4y agoWhile these are good guidelines, I came to the conclusion that life's too short to spend so much mental energy on this. If your devices need to be charged - charge them. That's it, that's the only rule.
- JamesAdir 4y agoLenovo has a tool that can keep the battery at around 70%. If you are 80% working in the same location, then it can really keep your batter life longer. If you are moving all the time, then certainly keep it charge to 100%.
- lazzurs 4y agoApple has started doing this and I can't say I am impressed. When I unplug I expect my laptop to be at 100% not randomly at ~80% based on a guess as to when I might unplug.
- pflanze 4y ago> - Deplete/fully charge it quarterly or twice a year to give the bms a change to balance the cells. AFAIK it's not the balancing that needs to happen periodically, but the measurement of the voltage curve so that estimates are shown correctly. Balancing should happen all the time (and is, AFAIK, usually done by a low-level circuit, not a microprocessor) regardless of how far you charge or discharge. But if you know more, feel free to correct me.
