Do Batteries With Lower Health Use the Same Power to Charge?

Asked By TechyTurtle991 On

I have a laptop battery that's at around 70% health, which means it doesn't fully charge to a hundred percent. So, I'm wondering if it still draws the same amount of power to get to this "full" 70%, compared to a new battery that charges to 100%. For example, if charging to a true 100% uses 5 watts, would the 70% battery still use 5 watts or would it be less, like 3.5 watts? Just to clarify, I'm assuming there's no overcharging happening here.

Let me give you an analogy: if you have a container with a capacity of 7 liters, it can’t hold 10 liters, right? So, if your battery only holds 70% of its original capacity, you can think of it as having less room to fill but the charging process might still work similarly up to its limits.
