@lavinog - I agree on your assertion that it is counterintuitive to keep a battery at low capacity for a portable device. Which is why I think having "profiles" is a good alternative.
By default, let it operate as it is doing now - charge always. However, a lot of people use their laptops as desktop replacements and it makes sense for them to choose a "optimize battery lifespan - battery will not be fully charged" option. As I have read on many sites, even charging batteries only when they fall below 90% is far better than continuous charging. A 90% charge is still a very acceptable number for portable devices. Profile-based battery charging gives one the flexibility to tune your system to maximize battery lifespan. -- Optimize battery lifespan option https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/528543 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
