Command/Feature/App to disable HP battery charging - HP Spectre x360

[Tberaldo_BR]

Hi! I would like to know if there is any software that disables HP battery charging.

I mean, I would like to let the battery inside the notebook without charging the battery while it is connected to the power supply.

Thank you very much and regards

Hi @Tberaldo_BR,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Hi! Yes, there is a feature available in HP laptops that allows you to manage battery charging to extend its lifespan. For HP Spectre x360 laptops, this can be managed through the HP Support Assistant or the BIOS settings.

Using HP Support Assistant

1. Open HP Support Assistant: Search for "HP Support Assistant" in the Start menu and open it.
2. Go to Battery Settings: Navigate to the "Battery" section. Look for an option related to battery health management or similar.
3. Enable Battery Management: If available, you may see a feature like "Battery Health Manager" or "Battery Charge Limit." Enable the feature to manage how and when the battery charges.

Using BIOS Settings

1. Restart Your Laptop: Reboot your HP Spectre x360.
2. Enter BIOS: During the boot process, press the key to enter the BIOS setup. This is typically F10, but it may vary, so watch for instructions on the screen during startup.
3. Find Battery Settings: Look for a menu related to "Advanced" or "Battery Settings" in the BIOS. Options may vary depending on the BIOS version.
4. Set Charging Options: Look for settings related to battery charging. Some HP models allow you to set a charge threshold or enable a mode that limits charging to extend battery life.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
