Summary

The kernel mod works, but I'd like to detail all the behaviors I'm seeing for completeness.

System Software

• Linux Mint 21 Cinnamon
• Kernel v5.15.0-43-generic

Behaviors

• echo 1 > /sys/bus/wmi/drivers/acer-wmi-battery/health_mode works to change the battery charging behavior
• Battery does discharge on wall power while above 80% charge
• Battery remaining estimate jumps around constantly on wall power while charge above 80%
  • Remaining estimate settles down when off wall power while charge above 80%
• Battery remains charged at XX% on wall power
• cat /sys/bus/wmi/drivers/acer-wmi-battery/health_mode always returns 0
• cat bus/acpi/drivers/battery/PNP0C0A\:00/power_supply/BAT1/status changes from Discharging to Charging at 80% level
• With Health Mode "enabled" the battery will not exceed 79% if it has fallen below 80%.
• echo 0 > /sys/bus/wmi/drivers/acer-wmi-battery/health_mode works to change the battery back to "normal" charging behavior
