Hi Armin,

thanks for the warning, I did not know that the charge limit is only a
preview feature on these models. I have stopped using it and will switch
to the battery charge modes in v2.

One question: the EC originally had 0 in EC_ADDR_CHARGE_CTRL, and it is
now 100 after I lifted the limit through charge_control_end_threshold.
Is 100 safe to leave, or should it be restored to 0?

Thanks,
Mohamed
