Re: battery discharging whilelaptop powered off?
Howard Howell, Gordon Messmer: To both of you thanks a lot for the insight - I'm not a pro when it comes to battery chemistry/technology. So I'm definitely grateful for information in that regard. For the sake of brevity, as a response, only a few lines: My knowledge about batteries only comes from using and maintaining them. I had extremely good experiences with a cellphone lio-on battery that I drained every 2 weeks or so for about seven years (starting 2009). Only after these many years the battery started having a slightly smaller run-time capability. It wasn't even broken at the time I replaced it with a new one: it simply lost charge a little earlier than in the beginning when I used it .. From what I now know is that it does not seem to be a big problem to *occasionally* re-calibrate li-on batteries. Even the arstechnica page from 2014 only seems to advise against re-calibration "all the time". Nevertheless: being careful to not re-calibrate every few weeks seems to be a good idea to me now. My previously linked (and in this thread mentioned) post from a few weeks ago was probably a little too optimistic: to advise there against *frequent* re-calibrating would have been a good idea. Again: Thanks!

Re: battery discharging whilelaptop powered off?
The guidelines quoted are also a bit dated. Modern charge controllers do a lot of control of the battery conditions based on temperature. If you look at your battery, you will see that there are 4 contacts. two are the charge current and two are to a temperature sensor. The charge controller monitors both current and voltage during charge, and temperature is used to adjust the charge current. In addition, when you are plugged in, if the equipment designer chose the appropriate charge controller, the battery is essentially disconnected from the load during charging. This allows charging to proceed with the appropriate control of the current, voltage and temperature. In essence the charge controller incorporates the switching to control when the battery is used vs the line for the load. Other things are incorporated into the battery management that includes switching control for alternate voltages in some cases and max discharge setting. Many of these charge controllers are propriatary, so you may not find the full information on the ones you can find in your laptop or cellphone, and many of the "modules" don't include the advanced features or have them turned off or disconnected due to the complexity of wiring and understanding the settings. All of this boils down to the fact that modern battery usage is much more complex than just charge/discharge cycles and depth of discharge.

I think what that means is that the battery design was such that when new the battery would hold 38.115 Wh, but it has now degraded so that it only holds 29.1522 Wh. if you divide 29.1522/38.115 you get 0.764848, hence the "capacity" now that it has aged a year and a half, is 76.4848% of the original 38.115. You'll notice that "capacity" is 100%, which means it's fully charged for its current place in the battery lifetime curve, i.e., 29.1522 Wh. Lithium Ion batteries age like that, its normal.

Yea, I don't know if laptop makers are copying Android now, but I've got a Samsung Android camera which you can tell to "power off", but it wants to be "helpful" and boot really fast so it doesn't really go all the way off unless you pop the battery out and back in. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/LEMMEV5PYFEZBACUIQ45VZ27NWEYJ54X/

battery discharging whilelaptop powered off?
I've noticed this only a few times, and it doesn't always happen, but there isn't enough data to form a pattern. Fedora Workstation 28 kernel varies but mainly I use Rawhide kernels to catch bugs [0.00] DMI: HP HP Spectre Notebook/81A0, BIOS F.40 02/26/2018 Battery is 100% charged. Computer is powered off via GNOME power button icon thingy. Unplug power cord. Go to bed. Morning I plug power back into the laptop and boot, and the battery icon indicates charging, click on that icon and it reports it's charging the batter, will take 40 minutes until full (80%). So how the heck is the battery losing 20% when the laptop is powered off? I have in the past couple weeks left the laptop overnight in suspend to RAM mode, unplugged from power, and in the morning it's 90% charged, which makes some sense I guess even though that still seems like a lot of loss. But 20% powered off makes no sense. The first time this happened I was suspicious of my own memory: OK maybe I left it in suspend even though I'm 99% certain I powered it off, but which is more likely, that I'm being spacey or that the laptop discharged 20% overnight while powered off? But this time I am certain it was powered off.
