There is no way to disable the battery. But there is also no real need to do so. If you plan to work on AC (wall plug) power for an extended time, you just need to remove the plug and let the battery run down to say 20-25% once a month or so and let it charge back up when you plug in the adapter.

Hi nero996!

 

Although Huffer EXPERT Level 18 is absolutely correct, there is no way to completely disable the battery when working on your laptop, HP has offered 2 possible solutions to similar problems with the introduction of SHIP MODE in 2017 and BATTERY MANAGER in 2018:

HP forum: Long Term laptop storage 

HP forum: Healthy battery when always plugged-in 

I've used both of these settings on my 640/650 G3s, which are the exact same models as yours (but with a 7th gen CPU).

 

Read these two threads, and post back if you need us to help you with applying one of these settings on your system.
