macOS recently introduced the ability to limit your battery to only charge up to 80%, a feature that I personally appreciate as I'm mostly using my MacBook plugged into a dock and it's arguably a great way to limit the ageing of the unit.

There's just one huge problem. Well, two actually. Firstly it doesn't allow me to set a minimum charge ("start charging when battery is at X%"), so when it falls to 79% it just tops it back up to 80, not a big deal but slightly annoying. The much bigger issue is that the charge limit apparently isn't being saved to the battery firmware itself so when the MacBook is turned off and plugged into my dock it just keeps on charging to 100%...

Similar issue with my Pixel 9 Pro, it normally sticks to the charge limit quite well, but multiple times a month I'd say it just randomly charges to 100% regardless. Apparently that's to calibrate the battery or something? As far as I know you have to do a complete cycle to calibrate a battery which 80% to 100% isn't, also I don't think a Li-ion battery needs to be calibrated this often, does it?

To contrast, KDE Plasma retains the limit at all times, lets you set a minimum amount and actually tells the battery to always stop charging at that amount.

Am I just not getting something about this?

I don’t leave mine running 24/7 either, but I fully cut off the power when I’m not using it. The dock is plugged into an extension cord with a switch so I can easily cut the power after putting the laptop to sleep or shutting it down.
