[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1935765, member: 204485"] Jake, my routine is not [I]always[/I] that structured either but when it is the algorithm works as I described. If I break the "cycle" it responds in the way you describe. It take a week or more to "relearn" the pattern. This is where the concept fails really. If there were a way to [I]decide[/I] to only charge to 80%, just as there is an option to charge to 100% at any time, rather than using a "machine learning" system then users could, as I think Dittoman 1 was suggesting Coconut Battery could do, then we could make that decision any time we knew the device was going to be in situ (plugged into AC) for an extended time. As it stands the algorithm works very well for my wife who leaves her MBP permanently plugged into AC in the office. Her battery level remains at 80% all the time. [/QUOTE]
