Limiting battery charging to some percentage
#1
Some conversation in IRC reminded me that I have been limiting my battery charging (on Android) to 68-70% for some time now, ever since I did some research that this probably extends battery life.

My question here is not to debate the merits of this (plenty discussions of that elsewhere) but rather, how to implement that on Debian (Mobian)?  The guy I was chatting with in IRC rattled off some stuff, but I did not catch nor understand most of it.  And they were not specific directions anyway (rather some generalities).

If no one knows offhand, I will eventually research it and post back what I find.

Maybe eventually I make some little app to handle the settings (see link in sig about making Phosh app in 10 min).  No promises.   Wink
