interesting, my new mac does something called "charging on hold" to avoid fully charging when you rarely use unplugged... stops at like 70-80% but you can force it to charge to full. Why is 70-80% an efficient hold level?

I get that it’s about battery longevity etc. I’m asking where the specific 70-80% number comes from. A fundamental property of lithium? Random threshold on the knee of a discharge curve?

There's a nice app called Al Dente that gives you even more control over this if you want to experiment with lower hold levels.
