It feels like manufacturers decided to offset their lawnmowing to end users. I am not an expert in this field but 0% charge is not zero as far as I know. Completely drained battery cannot be charged and is usually unrecoverably dead. As for 100% again there is a speculation that 100% does not reflect the full charge and if it does, then the battery itself has safeguards to cut off power.
I want my device to plug in and out without much thinking as this is the scenario 99% of customers will follow. So the device I am charging should be smart enough to handle overheating, overcharging, its battery’s lifecycle, etc. and I believe it is possible to do without involving end users into this decision making.
If the lower threshold is 30% let it be so. Tell me via notification to connect a charger to help the precious energy cell stay safe and healthy.
If the upper is 80% just lie to me saying that you are fully charged when in reality you are rotating the ions. Just be consistent in the average behavior and that’s it.
- Roark66 3y agoIn a microfpv world (tiny drones) it used to be pretty common to overvolt li-ion batteries to fill them "beyond 100%". These days manufacturers sell you batteries rated to charge to 4.35V,but they don't last long this way. Some mad people even charge huge 6c-2500mAh batteries like this, but it is insanity.
