Charge Limiter

Set charge limit for MacBooks.

Description

This app modifies a parameter called BCLM (presumably "Battery Charging Level Max") in the SMC which limits the charge of the battery to a set value.

The source code can be viewed by opening src/Charge Limiter.app in Apple's Script Editor. It is written in Javascript Application Scripting (or JXA).

The companion smcutil binary (located under src/Charge Limiter.app/Contents/Resources) was copied from this repository. The source code for smcutil is also available there.

Releases

Updates

This app will automatically check and notify you for any updates when you run it.

Running

The app is not code signed so you need to right-click on the app and select "Open" to bypass Gatekeeper's warning.
