We first heard about Chargie a few years ago when Lighty Gadgets first debuted a unit to optimize charging for smartphones. Now, Chargie is back in a new version focused on laptop battery health.

Despite device makers having solutions for battery aging that sets charge limits at 80% automatically, the reality is it isn’t always reliable or available or on older devices that don’t support the feature. Chargie allows for more granular scheduling, much lower and configurable overnight charging states, and is overall the better solution to charging optimization. Chargie makes it easy by giving you the ability to manually adjust the charging limit along with a fully controllable daily scheduler to keep the battery at a much safer 50% or 60% while you can, and also have it at 90 or 100% at times when you need longer battery life.

Together with its companion app, the new Chargie for Laptops will take care of your notebook’s battery health automatically by smartly limiting and scheduling the daily charging process. Head below to scope out all the details and learn more about Chargie for Laptops.
