![]() ![]() It also contains command-line to change threshold which can be helpful for Ubunut other desktop environments such as Kubuntu, Ubuntu Cinamon etc. The below link for readme of extension Github pages, contains a list of laptop make/model and dependencies, if required. Using Battery Health Charging extension, some laptop models are supported out of the box, while others model that are not supported by native linux kernel need to install dependencies, either 3rd party kernel module or packages. Creating this post just to bring awareness to Ubuntu users (Gnome), regarding Gnome extension to set Charging threshold / limit various laptops make/models.I guess that for a more automatic solution, tlp provides support for that as well, I tested that on my LG Gram 16, and it seems to work perfectly: when plugging the AC with 85% charged, KDE states that it is charging, but the percentage stays at 85% (with "time to full" blocked at 1:41).Īs stated in the quote above, this value will be reset when the kernel boots, so you may have to change the value again. So, for example, you can manually set the limit to 80 with the following command: echo '80' | sudo tee /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/battery_care_limit This value is reset to 100 when the kernel boots. ![]() Limiting the charge reduces battery capacity loss over time. Writing 80/100 to /sys/devices/platform/lg-laptop/battery_care_limit sets the maximum capacity to charge the battery. In particular, it also provides a "Battery care limit". Ubuntu packages are available in the official repository.įor LG Gram laptops, there's a specific kernel driver, which seems to be active out of the box, at least in EndeavourOS, for particular features of LG Gram, see So if you're reading this comment in few years, check the documentation, maybe your device is now supported. As pointed by in the comments (please upvote them!), while TLP used to only work on Thinkpads, the newest version has support for devices from multiple vendors, and given the nature of the project-if the appropriate drivers for other devices will become available, it is likely these will get integrated into this project too. One of the parameters it controls is maintaining battery charging limits. Nevertheless TLP is highly customizable to TLP comes withĪ default configuration already optimized for battery life, so you may Without the need to understand every technical detail. TLP brings you the benefits of advanced power management for Linux There's a somewhat nicer application now available to Ubuntu (and other distributions): ![]()
