They wait for several sample cycles. I believe your 80% charge wasn't correct, but that it was just a piece of lint. My expectation is charge starts when you reach 90% current capacity or even a little higher. Your English is very good. I bet way better than if I tried to write your preferred languages. | |

I don't speak English that well so I have a question concerning your answer: Did I understand it right that the SMC is somehow looking at the battery condition when connecting the power adapter and thus then decide to load or not to load? So it decides at almost 100 percent that discharging is better than holding the high percentage? | |
