Should I be afraid that my laptop might start a fire while I'm away or while I'm asleep if I leave it plugged in and powered on all the time?
If its apple, acer or hp yes
why are you leaving a laptop plugged inlaptops are like phones, you charge them then use them 8-10 hours until they need charging again
>>101536567more like 2 hours of actual work
>>101536567good bait
>>101536679retard alert, charging a battery constantly kills the battery quicker
>>101536437Also MSI
>>101536392yes, battery are not safe and can expand, explode and cause fires. if you want your laptop permanently on remove the battery entirely.
>>101536748linux charge_control in /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0 makes it run off of AC alone when over set percentage, so it doesnt drain or charge battery at all
>>101536748If a battery is 100% charged, it's not charging any further. I thought you were making a shitpost but you really are this retarded, huhHow many hundreds of cycles does your poor battery have because you're a retard?
>>101536788>>101536792Semi-true, but having the battery at 100% at all times is bad for the battery lifespan, also charging and discharging it, that's why some laptops offer a partial charging cycle and it stops at 80% or something if you wanna keep it plug in.I would not dare use it like OP suggest if your laptop didn't had that functionality
>>101536437Rent-free, bhenchod.
>>101536973Good morning sirs!

house fire probability is only slightly higher with laptop on mains, i would not worry about it, you will be back soon anyways
>>101537078All talk and no hard data/stadisticskys
>>101537113>stadistics
>>101536392worse case scenario: house firesbest case scenario: you wake up one day and goes "owo whats this? *notices bulge*"
>>101536437And dell
>>101537140and lenovo
>>101537351and asus
>>101536788std::cout << "My laptop doesn't support this you slag.\n\n";
it's probably best to get some sort of metal case for these sorts of devices if you're leaving them alone for long periods of time
>>101536437Agreed>Captcha: DONT
>>101536392if it's a thinkpad with a lenovo dock you're safe.
>>101536660maybe if your laptop is from the stone ageany intel laptop made after tiger lake gets 8+ hours battery so they can compete with jeetbooks
>>101536392get some porcelain tiles and make a box for it if you are that parnoid. those hella fireproof.
>>101536392>no numpadinto the trash it goes
>>101536748This was solved in hardware decades ago. Are you still obsessively pulling your gear off charge like an idiot?
>>101537078so retarded I classify it as rage-bait
>>101536392thank you for reminding me to set battery charging thresholds.
