Or, even worse: you use your MacBook 90% of the time, connected to a monitor with the charger permanently plugged in.

Have you tried AlDente? What percentage do you lock your MacBook at? Let me know in the comments below!

Heat is the silent killer. If AlDente detects your battery is too hot (e.g., during a Final Cut Pro export), it automatically stops charging to prevent thermal damage.

Need to leave the office and go to a meeting? Use Discharge Mode to burn off that 100% charge down to 80% before you unplug, so you leave the house at a healthy voltage. But Wait, What About Calibration? You might have heard: "Don't keep your battery at a low percentage forever; it messes up the calibration."
