    fast charging vs normal charging cellphone,damaging battery?

    Hi friends.
    I see there are many clever people here.
    I purchased used Note 10 plus phone,and it doesn't have good battery cuz it's been used probably more then a year.
    Since I'm not an expert into phones but my own thought is that fast charging with high current wears out battery more quickly and damages cells compared to regular charging.
    I don't need fast charging at all so I disabled that option in phone,since I don't care if my phone will charge 1h or 2.5 h (with regular charging).
    But want to ask does fast charging damage the battery cells as time passes by.
    I think the charger uses 3 A at fast charging at that is really too high current for a battery of 4200mAh.
    Correct me if I am wrong,but that current is used in cellphone batteries who have more cells and high capacity.
    So I disabled the fast charging option and I like my battery to charge with lower current slowly and I don't care how long it will take.
    I also charge the phone while it's off,and won't drain battery below 15 %.
    I installed Accubattery which reccomends me charging to only 85 % which gives it lowest possible wear out cyle.
    Is that good idea?
    Thanks in advance.

    Li-ion batteries like to be charged with low current values. Therefore, if you have no time limit, it should be charged with the lowest possible current rating. Another rule of thumb with lithium-ion batteries is that you use the battery between 20% and 80% whenever possible. We recommend that you charge your batteries to near full capacity after each use.
    I'm not happy to be so strong. because it's not humanly

      And what about Li-polymer batteries used in Macbooks? Should they also be used between 20 and 80%? Is the same Li-Ion best practice also applicable for Li-Polymer?

        Laptop battery charging circuit
        by piernov
        1. Some theory
        1.1. Introduction
        Almost every laptop has a charging circuit of some sort, that does a few things:
        • Manages switching between AC adapter and battery power
        • Manages battery charging and generates power rail to charge battery


        There are 2 different designs to handle switching between AC adapter and battery power and feeding the system:
        • Hybrid power boost (HPB) and traditional circuits without power boost (see Warning in HPB section)
        • Narrow VDC (NVDC)

        Texas instrument has a nice overview of these technologies with some more details at https:...

        ThinkBook 15 G3 ACL Not Charging Battery - LA-K602P Board
        by kodox
        since i couldn't find schematic or boardview for this model (LA-K062P), i use closest board model found here https://www.badcaps.net/forum/troubl...-and-boardview

        the schematic share same marking for each component, using same PD-Controller, same BQ25710, the only different is the battery cell used. LA-K061P uses 3S battery while LA-K062P use 4S battery per schematic.
        what i've done:

        Modification of a Fluke multi meter that uses three AA batteries to use a 14500 lithium ion battery
        by sam_sam_sam
        I have had with regular AA batteries that leak this meter is expensive new I already replaced the battery battery clips once and the same thing happened again and I am tried of so it is getting modified to accommodate lithium ion batteries that are the same size excluding the positive terminal and removing the battery clips I will have enough room for the BMS protection board

        I going to put 3 lithium ion battery in parallel with the BMS protection board and a way to charge the battery externally and heat shrink the battery pack and use a JST connector so I easily remove the battery...

        Razor Blade Steath 13" RZ09-01963 plugged in Not Charging (new battery)
        by Shinju
        Hey All!

        Long time forum member here with a problematic laptop issue!

        I got a RZ09-0196 with a bloated battery (still worked and charged fine) I pulled the old cell pack out and installed a new cell pack in its place.

        The laptop would not power on with the new battery installed without the power supply being plugged in.

        When booting into Win10 (all up to date BTW) I saw the battery icon with 49% plugged in not charging.

        TL;Dr version, old battery worked, charged but was bloated, installed a new non OEM replacement, laptop/windows...

        Asus FX505DY - Battery not charging - BQ24780S
        by Iherduleikgemz
        Hello everyone

        I have been working on this laptop mentioned in the title, it initially had a shorted capacitor. After I replaced it, the thing started working again, but there is still another problem. The laptop was running off a charger, the battery was reporting 96% charge... but when I unplugged the charger, the laptop died. I've measured the battery voltage - 0V. I think it is locked. (Screenshot from batterymon, below).

        I've ordered a new 3rd-party battery, but I think there's something wrong with it too - the laptop boots, but the battery isn't charging. Also,...
