Can't find optimized battery charging option?

I bought a Macbook Air 2017, a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty sure I was asked if I would like to optimize my battery charging while installing MacOS Monterey 12.3.1 , but I can't seem to find it in System Preferences > Battery > Battery


Any suggestions?


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.3

From memory and an fairly certain - had an Intel Retina MBA 2018 - some time ago and the Feature was not present in Big Sur macOS 11.


If that is genuinely accurate - the Intel MBA 2017 would not have the feature either.


Screen Shot of present M1 MBA 2020 on Monterey 12.3.1 does have the feature
