As mentioned, lithium batteries are happiest charged around 20-80%. No shame in going higher if you need it, but typical day to day I drive less than 50 miles in a day. If I'm using 20% of my battery capacity, I don't care if that means I go from 100% down to 80% or 80% down to 60%. I'll plug it in at the end of the day and charge back up to whatever I want by the next morning.

Put another way, how many times have you woken up thinking you need to stop at a gas station because you only have 3/4 of a tank?

    I mean, fairly often. But I imagine for neurotypical people it might be way less.😂
