MODERATORS
If you want to preserve your battery, follow the same principles for any battery, avoid having above 80% and below 20%. I'm not sure for KDE, but on GNOME I have a GUI utility that lets you set this and enable/disable with a toggle.
The charging controller must support that feature. Notebooks by Asus, Lenovo and maybe others do, perhaps even the Ally and Legion handhelds, but if the battery controller doesn't support that, the toggle will do nothing.
