That's how all chargers work. The problem is that it's simply not great to have your battery at 100% all of the time.
no, it isn't. A lot of systems still run power through the battery even after it's charged. The battery ends up in a state of constant trickle charging.
In the deck, once the battery is charged, and the power cable is connected, the battery is bypassed and effectively disconnected.
And the deck only charges to 100% if it was below 90 to begin with.
