I need to find a way I can keep my dock from charging, I don’t have the option to change my computer to stop charging at a certain percentage but I do have optimized battery toggled on, however I get notifications stating it is bad for my battery. Is there a model or anything that I can change it to not charge or a way I can hook it up to turn off charging, with the amount of money I paid for the computer I want to avoid killing my battery as much as possible. Thank you in advance.
Hello Travis,
Thank you for reaching out on the forums!
There unfortunately not a way to prevent the dock from charging if it is powered on and connected to the host. The only way to prevent charging is by powering off the dock or disconnecting it.
In regards to your concern about the battery life of your host, we do have this KB article demystifying some of the messaging regarding leaving your laptop charging:
