Macbook Air charger not turning green

I have an M2 Macbook Air and the charger light is no longer turning green. It seems to be charging completely fine, but the light stays orange. What does that mean?

I saw this same issue the other day with my MacBook air M2 as well.

I checked the charging and it was at 90%.

The MacBook was no longer charging its battery in order to preserve battery life.

When the battery is charged at 100% then the MagSafe light goes green.

If I recall correctly, there is a charge setting that can be changed so it fully charges to 100% all the time. But this would not be as good for your battery.
