I’ve had the charge limit on 80% since it became available as I leave my deck docked for long periods of time, but it doesn’t seem to be working since every time I get it away from the dock it shows 100% charge. Also the charge indicator gets stuck now until I reboot the deck, but that’s a separate issue…

    It’s doing the right thing - most of the harm has been done with the battery being charged up in the first place. If you can pull power from the wall instead of battery, do it. Ordinary usage will chip the battery down to the charge limit in due time.

    I have an ASUS laptop which does not do this. When you turn on the battery limit, it stops pulling power from the wall until the battery is down to the right place. Very rude.
