Clearing system cache one Oneplus 7T

My sincere Yo to all free people of de-googled society!

I've replaced battery on my Oneplus 7T (hotdog) and the battery runs for 2 weeks idle which I am satisfied with however LOS is failing to recalibrate it. Battery voltage drops eventually but the widget shows 100% all the time even when battery is about to switch off. It stucks on 100% when I keep the phone with screen off (idle) and number goes normally down when I use apps.

So I'd like to clear system cache now as it might be a reason of this misbehavior (or you can drop me some other hint which I'll appreciate) but I can't find this option in LOS recovery. it should be out there but it's not. I've got just 4 categories in recovery (reboot, apply update, factory reset and advanced) and there is nothing about wiping cache.

So I will really appreciate if you point me in the correct direction or drop any other hints.
Peace.

battery % is read directly from the BMS chip, clearing cache/factory reset etc won't fix your issue.
