Battery Capacity Problem in Ubuntu 18.10












0















I have a one month old HP Notebook 15 laptop and i installed Ubuntu 18.10 with all updates
and upgrades and everything is working fine but my only concern is the continuous decrease
of the capacity of the battery everytime i use my laptop. i'm doing partial discharge regularly
so when the battery indicator says 40% remaining, i power off the laptop, wait for a few hours
and then recharge it to 100% but everytime i turn on my laptop and open "Power Statistics" in Ubuntu, i find a .2 to .5 percent decrease in battery capacity. What am i doing wrong? Do i have to wait until the battery percentage indicator reaches 30% or 20% before i recharge the battery?
Is it possible that Ubuntu is showing incorrect or inaccurate battery capacity?
