Force Power Manager into Maximum lifespan mode
Posted: Wed Feb 05, 2014 8:49 am
On my W520 (Windows 7, Power Manager 6.61.1 I have three options in the Power Manager >> Battery >> Battery Maintenance:
*)Always full charge
*)Automatically optimize for battery lifespan
*)Custom charge threshold
In the 2nd option it will "automatically" optimize. And when I enabled this option, some time later it went into "Maximum lifespan mode" and the gauge got a green lining. However, a few months ago when I accidentally discharged it to empty a few times, it went automatically to "maximum runtime" mode. I don't want this. How can I force it back to "Maximum lifespan mode"?
