Prolong Laptop Battery Life in Linux by Limiting Charging Levels


Illustration of battery levels: empty (0%, most stressed), midway (least stressed), and full (100%, most stressed).
“In case you didn’t know it already, regularly charging the battery to 100% or fully discharging it puts your battery at stress and may lead to poor battery life in the long run. Well, to control the battery charging on Linux, you have a few options:

  • KDE Plasma has this as an in-built feature. That’s why KDE is ❤
  • GNOME has extensions for this. Typical GNOME thing.
  • There are command line tools to limit battery charging levels. Typical Linux thing 😍

It is well worth using these available settings if you use Linux on a laptop. The article linked below goes into more detail on how to use each option.
