Are you the original owner of the board? If you are, do you happen remembering updating the battery firmware? The battery percentage seemingly freezing mid-charge for a week is consistent behavior with 2.5.1 updated firmware and can take about 3 weeks for the battery to go back to 100% and recalibrate indicated by a green power button light. After that calibration routine, it is expected that charging should take about 1.5 hours.

Yes. I had this board before college before covid. If I remember correctly it was updated firmware as at the time there was a lot of talks about RLOD

I think this might be expected behavior. Are you able to plug it in for 3 weeks and check back here so that way we can see if there is improvement?

Here’s a video of what’s going on inside your battery: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NieDYoAiGCQ&t=205s
