I want to play games on my laptop but my laptop don't have limit charge at 80%. Does playing games while plugged in can shorten lifespan of my battery? Why HP don't have charge limit at 80% on this laptop model?

Bottom line...it is fine to leave your notebook plugged in most of the time.

Ohhhhh.... So what you can recommend or tricks to prevent battery swelling while gaming on this laptop? Cause if i play games on battery and recharge it, then battery cycle will greatly reduce. 

 

I don't know why HP don't provide all their laptop an charging protection.

HP used to have a link regarding how to minimize risks to the battery.

 

I can pull up the cached page, but not the original one.

Gaming laptops have high-performance components such as dedicated graphics cards, high-performance processors with multiple cores, etc. To ensure that these components are functioning up to their full capacity, it is advised to keep your device plugged into an outlet.
