It focuses on predictable charge limiting, with the common use case of stopping charge around a configured maximum such as 80 percent. batt's design is intentionally daemon-based: the README compares it to docker, with a client sending requirements to a background daemon that performs the charging control. By 2026, the README notes a changed platform landscape: macOS 26.4 and later supports native charge limiting from 80 to 100 percent, while batt remains useful on older macOS versions or when users want limits below 80 percent. ### Adoptionsgeschichte batt is Homebrew-packaged and its README documents `brew install batt` followed by running it as a brew service. It also offers an installation script and release binaries. The repository page showed about 1.6k stars at enrichment time, reflecting a niche but visible Apple Silicon power-user audience. ### Wie es verwendet wird Typical CLI usage is to install the daemon, check status with `sudo batt status`, set an upper charge limit with commands such as `sudo batt limit 80`, disable the limit with `batt disable` or `batt limit 100`, and optionally control adapter power. Advanced usage includes lower and upper charge bands, MagSafe LED control, idle/sleep handling, automatic calibration, scheduled calibration, and logs under `/tmp/batt.log`. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren batt is interesting because it is a package-manager-distributed hardware-control tool that depends on private-feeling macOS power behavior and firmware compatibility rather than a stable cross-platform Unix API. It also captures a packaging moment: before native macOS charge limits became broader, power users installed a daemon through Homebrew to get ThinkPad-style charge thresholds on Apple Silicon MacBooks. ### Zeitleiste - 2025: v0.4.1 release highlights an experimental GUI and macOS Tahoe compatibility work. - 2026: README update says macOS 26.4 adds native charge limiting, reducing batt's necessity for some users. - 2026: v0.7.x releases include auto-calibration and scheduling work. ### Related projects - The README links third-party GUI projects BattGUI and batt-helper. - macOS Optimized Battery Charging and macOS 26.4 native charge limiting are the platform features batt complements or replaces depending on OS version. ### Quellen - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise formula declares a Homebrew service. - **Geiger-Risiko:** orange / mittel - formula declares a Homebrew service ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
