Like others, I’ve been wondering about the “80%” ish rule of thumb for charging phone and car batteries. Specifically I’m wondering, is the electric potential stored evenly across the entire battery? Or do some cells/areas not get exercised when only charging to 80%?
I read the other posts about batteries, but couldn’t find this answer. Thanks in advance.

Yeah it’s evenly distributed and nothing needs to get “exercised” in modern batteries. There was some old tech for batteries 20 years ago that had a “memory” and wanted you to exercise them by fully discharging and charging but that stuff is all long gone
