With recent updates to some of HPs Omen' line of gaming laptops came a function called 'Battery Care.' It is configurable in BIOS under the advanced tab and allows you to set a percentage the battery will be allowed to charge to.
However, the rest of their Pavilion line is apparently left in the dark. I have a 2021 Ryzen 5600h/GTX 1650 (16gb 2x8GB-3200) and I am running the most current BIOS available and there is no 'Battery Care.' Simply the 'adaptive battery optimizer' which sadly, does not limit state of charge.
Being that these are gaming laptops, many of them spend days on the charger as you don't get full CPU/GPU power when not plugged in. So, why, when it requires NO additional hardware has HP NOT implemented this function? It would likely extend the life of the battery greatly as opposed to keeping it at 100% all the time.

Hi@AssaultPenguin3,
Welcome to the HP Support Community! I'd like to help!
I see you are looking for the Battery Care option on the HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop PC.
-
The Battery Health Manager feature provides a number of options designed to improve battery longevity and performance for various usage scenarios.
-
It is designed to help optimize battery life by mitigating the exposure of the notebook battery to key factors, such as high state-of-charge, that can accelerate battery swelling and chemical aging over time.
- HP Battery Health Manager is a BIOS-level setting available in most HP business notebooks.
I understand your concern and I have brought your suggestion to the attention of an appropriate team within HP.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
