    You can use Tasker or equivalent apps to limit the battery charge.

      I thought it wasn’t possible except by rooting or external control. I’ve just been doing it manually but figure on adding an automatic controller sometime.

        I did it on mine. You can use ‘battery level’ state. Set it between 80-100% for example.

        I think I’ve share mine tasker project somewhere in my comment quite awhile ago. anyway, if you want you can DM me.

        edit: it’s not totally automatic. Need to manually unplug once reaching the level.

          If you have to manually unplug that defeats the purpose. Right now I just estimate the charging time to reach 80% and set a timer to beep after that long. It works ok
