    To anyone who is doing this, please let us know what laptop you used. Seems like not all Alienware laptops are supported

      Hmm, maybe your laptop is not supported. From I researched from Dell’s website & other websites; Express Charge charges the laptop quicker than standard charger.

    Alienware m15 R6: works
    BIOS screen looks different but I can still do what's described in the video.
    BIOS Setup > Power > Custom
    Default values were Start: 50 (can't go below this) and Stop: 90. I'm changing to 80.

    I have a 17 R4 And the only setting it has is express charge There it only has 3 setting which is express charge, primary AC use, and auto I guess I'll leave it at auto but I don't know how to change it besides those 3 options

    • @SiGuy_YT
      @SiGuy_YT  Рік тому +1

      Are you on the latest BIOS? If there’s no “custom” then it’s probably not supported on that model.
      When did this laptop come out?

    • @SiGuy_YT
      @SiGuy_YT  2 роки тому

      Try discharging it to like 75% & put it back on the charger to see if it actually goes pass 80%. I noticed that X17 R2. It would stop charging at 60% but Windows thinks it will charge to 100% which it didn’t.

      As far as I'm aware, charging a computer past a certain percentage can shorten its battery lifetime. So this helps keep that issue to a minimum.

    Okay but let’s say I unplug my laptop and use it elsewhere. And then I set the start charging to 60% and the laptop is at 49% will it not charge at all?

    • @SiGuy_YT
      @SiGuy_YT  Рік тому +1

      It will charge up to whatever the maximum is.
      It will only charge if it falls below the minimum.

      There’s something similar to this on the G15. Tried the “My Asus” app & look for battery section. Should find something that will limit the battery to 80% charge only.
