    Just a guess, but doesn't Lenovo have power management tools for Linux? https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Ubuntu/...14/m-p/5273940 Maybe it is just for Thinkpads? IDK. That's what I'd try.

    You can do it using command line.

    To disable charging threshold
    Code:
    echo '0' | sudo tee /sys/bus/platform/drivers/ideapad_acpi/VPC2004:00/conservation_mode
    To enable charging thrshold
    Code:
    echo '1' | sudo tee /sys/bus/platform/drivers/ideapad_acpi/VPC2004:00/conservation_mode
    If you are on Gnome desktop enviroment, and if you want doing it using GUI, you can use Gnome extension Battery health charging

    https://extensions.gnome.org/extensi...alth-charging/

    Install extension manager app and install Battery health charging from there

    My suggestion would be to go into the UEFI settings utility and see if you can change it from. The battery is part of the motherboard and it is charged by motherboard electronic components. Software utilities would need to change motherboard settings.
