Solution

Set the charge limit to about 80% (for Intel machines, the battery charge level may be slightly lower than the set value):
sudo bclm write {{77}}


Read the current charge limit:
bclm read


Keep the charge limit after rebooting/smc reset:
sudo bclm persist


Remove the persistent charge limit:
sudo bclm unpersist
