Anyone using this battery charging case? Bought one from Amazon a week ago, it works great but there is one problem.

As we know when just charge the phone using any USB C cable. I usually charge it at night when I goto bed, so when it charges the phone up to 100% full and the phone will remain 100% unless I unplug the charger (doesn't matter how many hours or days)

But if I put the Alpatronix battery case on my phone, when I charge it all together (according to the manual , it was programmed to charge my galaxy s8 first then battery case) When my phone reaches 100% it stopped charging and I can see the battery starts draining even though my charge cable still connected. This is what I don't understand. I tested it with straight charging cable and wireless charging. Both end up the same with the Battery case attached. It will charge my phone and the battery case for sure, but it stops charging while my phone reaches 100%. And when it starts draining from 100 to 99 and so on. It will not automatically charge my phone itself till it is full. It will only charge the phone when I am not using battery case. My phone will remain 100% all the time with charge cable connected. No matter how long I have the phone connected to the charger, hrs, days. It will keep it 100%. I wonder what is the main problem? Would it be a defective Alpatronix battery case?

I think it is normal?

I've had many kind of power bank, which is the same principle as battery case. Most of them stopped charging when phone battery is full, and yes, you need to initiate the charging again if the phone battery starts decreasing (usually by pressing the button).

Well, there are several "smart" power banks that starts charging when you plug in the phone, and does trickle charging when the phone is full. But, what I want to say is that not every power bank is made of the same system.

Are you talking about power bank or battery case?
If you know any battery case that has the feature I mentioned above, can you give me the name?

I have a few power banks but I don't like carry it separately. Battery case is more convenient.
