When trying to modify the 'Max Battery Charge' it always jumps back to 3%. Tried rebooting, reinstalling helper, restarting app, and checking/unchecking 'Use MacOS battery scale'. This is on Big Sur 11.2.1.

Hey @noahjansen
The "use macos battery scale" option is not available on the new 2.1 version. Are you sure you are using the right one?

I had a similar issue when I installed via homebrew - I uninstalled the homebrew version and manually downloaded the latest version from the Releases page. Worked great.

You're both right, I was using v1.2 and misread it as v2.1 as I assumed homebrew would install the latest version. With v2.1 I can now change the slider. Thanks!
