Hi Sumit,
Thanks for your response.
I bought my Framework as a backup machine which I power up once a week to check for / install software updates.
I looked into this at the end of July out of curiosity as it wasn’t causing me any particular problems. I only published my post just in case it might be of help to others.
I hadn’t been aware of your 90 post long thread - it seems it was only started after I’d finished experimenting in mid-September.
I’ve since read your thread and the thread at Viability of an ML 1220 rechargable battery for RTC | CMOS (11th gen) - #306 by Jason_Dagless.
Thanks to everyone for the info - I understand things a lot better now.
Regards,
John
