Here's a mildly puzzling question that came up because I've set up a dual-boot system with 64-bit Windows 10 and 32-bit Windows 7 on a ThnkPad X240s.
Because this machine is now three years old, and Lenovo doesn't seem to want to manufacture new batteries for it (both batteries are internal), I thought I would turn on the Battery Health option in the Lenovo power settings.
Under Windows 10, the Lenovo Settings app offers to set the charging limit to 80% to preserve battery health.
Under Windows 7, the older Lenovo Power Manager wants to set the charging limit to 50%, not 80%.
Does anyone have any opinion about which makes more sense?
