Setting the device on Battery Limit changes the protocol for charging the device battery. When Battery Limit is enabled, the battery charge will be limited to 50% of its maximum capacity. The charge level reported in Windows will reflect this limit. Therefore, it will show that the battery is charged up to 50% and will not charge beyond this limit. If you enable Battery Limit while the device is above 50% charge, the Battery icon will show that the device is plugged in but discharging until the device reaches 50% of its maximum charge capacity.

Adding the Battery Limit option to Surface UEFI will require a [Surface UEFI firmware update](update.md), which will be made available through Windows Update or via the MSI driver and firmware packages on the Microsoft Download Center. Check [Enable "Battery Limit" for Surface devices that have to be plugged in for extended periods of time](https://support.microsoft.com/help/4464941) for the specific Surface UEFI version required for each device and supported devices. Currently, Battery Limit is only supported on Surface Pro 4 and Surface Pro 3. However, the setting will be available in the future on other Surface device models.
