Question: intelligent power control under Windows


Recommended Posts

I know that, to make the most of a laptop battery, it should be charged to 100%, then allowed to almost completely discharge before being charged up to 100% again.

It would be neat if there was a bit of software that monitored the battery capacity and then, in software, turned off the charging when the battery got to 100% charged, then turned it back on when battery got to (say) your critical charge level.

The advantage of this would be that I could leave my laptop plugged in all the time, but would still ensure my battery was as healthy as possible.

Does such software exist?

Thanks and regards,

Stuart
