## Battery charging thresholds
|
||||
|
||||
As of [v2.2.0](https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/releases/tag/v2.2.0), battery charging thresholds can be set in the config file. This enforces your battery to start and stop charging at defined values
|
||||
|
||||
### Supported devices
|
||||
|
||||
* **Lenovo ThinkPad** (thinkpad_acpi)*
|
||||
* **Lenovo IdeaPad** (ideapad_acpi)*
|
||||
|
||||
***Please note, your laptop must have an installed ACPI kernel driver specific to the manufacturer.** To check if you have the correct module installed and loaded run `lsmod [module]`
|
||||
|
||||
**To request that your device be supported, please open an [issue](https://github.com/AdnanHodzic/auto-cpufreq/issues/new). In your issue, make us aware of the driver that works with your laptop**
|
