Running a Gigabyte U4UD, been having battery problems for months now, and the battery health only reports 50% capacity. Started playing Battlefront and got distracted and saw my battery looks like this now. Been doing this for 15 min, so either my battery is magical… or the Clevo design is flawed. Seeing how long she goes for on battery before it just dies.
I am not looking for tech support, just thought this would be funny.
I fear you‘d had to reverse engineer some proprietary nonsense that some companies put in their battery in order to prevent free repai… rhmm, security of course, security…
I’ve not worked with batteries but I would assume there are two pins for voltage and ground, one temperature probe pin and or two pins for serial communication (probably I²C). If batteries would have had some sort complex handshake then it would have needed a corresponding UEFI patch so that system is able to refuse booting if the power level is too low. That’s why I assume there would be no handshake (unless it’s apple ofc).
