What’s the 3rd party tool for the laptop battery? Is it for macOS?
I’ve been using AlDente for awhile:

Good feature set, some cool visualizations of charging activity (as cool as watts going into a battery can be…). Been very happy with it so far, keep my laptop at 80% pretty much all the time (mostly docked).
Awesome thanks. It’s a wonder why this isn’t more popular though… I’ll check it out today.
Ahh dang, it's only for Macs. I never knew this was an option, it's something I'd love to use on my PC, and phone too - currently I use AccuBattery to monitor battery health and alert me when it reaches 90% charge so I can unplug it.
Using this method, I've kept my phone battery at around 80%+ original capacity even after 3 years of rather heavy use. I'm very pleased.
if it helps i use tlp on linux
