Why BatWiser?

macOS desktop view

In today’s digital age, our reliance on portable devices like laptops and smartphones is greater than ever. With this increased dependence comes the need to ensure that these devices perform optimally and have a long lifespan. One critical aspect of maintaining device health is proper battery management, and that’s where BatWiser comes in.

The Problem with Conventional Charging

Most users charge their devices to 100% without considering the impact on battery longevity. However, studies and real-world experience show that charging lithium-ion batteries to full capacity repeatedly can significantly reduce their lifespan. Overcharging causes stress on the battery, leading to faster wear and tear, and ultimately, the need for premature battery replacement or even device replacement.

The Engineer’s Insight

Yevhen Zakharov, the developer of BatWiser, has spent over 25 years in the field of information technology. With extensive experience in developing web applications and desktop software, Yevhen has a deep understanding of the technical nuances involved in device management. After working with Apple computers for more than five years, he realized that charging a battery to 80% can drastically reduce its wear.

Yevhen’s personal experience with Apple devices confirmed the benefits of charging to 80%. By consistently adhering to this charging practice, he observed an annual battery wear rate of just 1-2%, a stark contrast to the 10% or more experienced by those who charged their devices to 100% regularly. This significant reduction in battery wear translates to fewer battery replacements and prolonged device longevity.

The Birth of BatWiser

To implement this charging strategy effectively, Yevhen developed BatWiser, a user-friendly application designed for macOS. BatWiser allows users to set a desired battery charge level, and the app will sound an alert when the battery reaches that level. This simple yet powerful tool helps users maintain optimal battery health effortlessly.
