Hey Guys,

I got my new laptop yesterday (Lenovo yoga) and I have this thing called One Key Optimizer and there is an option called Conservation Mode on it, what does this do? I assumed that it doesn't damage the battery when plugged in for long periods of time.

 

Also is the forum being DDoSed, I had a CloudFlare thing again.

This mode  in energy manager affects the firmware on the battery, and stops the charging when it reaches 60%.  

In some cases, not charging the battery to 100% constantly may improve the overall lifespan of the battery with the trade off being that you will have less run time on a charge because you are only using 60% of the battery capacity.

     

This setting is most often suggested for a system that is always Plugged in to the Ac adapter,

 

When the AC adapter is still connected and the battery reaches its charge limit, you will see a "Plugged-in not charging" message when you hover on the battery icon in the notification area.   Since the firmware is set, this should still work even if the system is off and just plugged in. "
