The Samsung battery life extender extend the batt life by limiting the full charge percentage to 80% so that the full charge/discharge cycle will be decreased to some extent.
I found the battery status and info under /proc/acpi/battery/BAT1, but I am not sure if it's possible to do the same by make changes to these files on the pseudo file system.
