14" MBP M2 Max - Battery Cycle After 1 Week of Use!??!
If when you’re using your mac always plugged in or docked, I recommend using BCLM so it limit your maximum percentage of charge. E.g I set mine to charge maximum at 58%, if will not charge beyond that.

I have a brand new map 16 2021 - might there be a good reason why my MBP might not be charging to the fullest unless I press "charge to the fullest now?" I'm wondering if it's a new feature that I can trust or if it's some sort of an issue that would I need to press "full charge" every time?
You can, with Battery.sh . The version for Intel Macs is BCLM.

Ask HN: Host a website from a living room in 2022?
Constantly keeping the battery at 100% can be an issue, but modern versions of macOS allow you to limit charging. There are also utilities that work on older OS versions (they just issue an SMC command to achieve the same thing), like this one: https://github.com/zackelia/bclm

Unplug Your Laptop Now, or It Will Stay Plugged in Forever

Looks like there's a decent CLI tool for it, but being a Mac guy I'm of course going for the slick GUI app https://apphousekitchen.com. The developer came up with a really clever incentive for free-app users to upgrade to the Pro version: make the icons for the free version unbelievably ugly. (The design of the app itself is excellent)

Best practices for keeping Mac battery healthy?
download AlDente and your battery will thank you. If you have it plugged in most of the time limit the charge to 80% and AlDente will stop charging beyond that.

Constant Plugged in?
Just a shame keeping the battery at 100% will degrade its health over time. I would love an option to keep it at 50% most of the time, just like my MacBook with AlDente.
- is there any Thunderbolt hub that I can turn off charging while it's connected to the Macbook?

Charging a lithium battery to 80% only?
It's not possible to set a hard limit in macOS without third party utility like AlDente [1].
I was referring to the built-in "Optimised battery charging" feature. When this is active and has decided it will cap charging at 80%, you get a "charge to full now" option in the battery menu.

Got a 14" M1 Max with 64Gb + 2TB + 3yrs Applecare+ for $2650 after tax. Do I need this battery app?
I was told to get this app to help maximize battery life as it keep it within 30-80% charge instead of 100%. Would this app help prolong the battery life?
