Is this the new "return some videotapes"?
Me after getting my new multi-port USB-C power brick.
I got a folding solar panel that I use to charge a big power brick and then use that to charge devices. The goal is to use the solar panel on long camping trips and in case of power outages.
The brick alone will keep my phone topped off for over a week
It do feel that way.
I don't get it
He has lots of wireless devices and is happy that, for once, everything is fully charged.
I guess I thought there was more to it than that. Just doesn't seem that funny to me? 😅
Including the electricity bill

I try and do that every couple months.

Now, for the best battery health, just need to only charge everything that's used portably but plugged in every night to 80%, and everything that's occasionally moved from place to place but only ever used when it's plugged in to 50%.
100% charges are for those occasions when you'll be working away from power for a few days.
That being said, a lot of consumer electronics work that way automatically, where they stop charging below their theoretical max capacity but read as 100% to protect the battery and let consumers still feel like their devices are fully charged.
Now you can't use any of your devices or you'll mess it up.
