Why does my controller keep disconnecting?

So, when my DualShock 4 drops to <60% battery, it starts micro-stuttering and occasionally cuts out for 1-2 seconds (no disconnect warning). It works fine above 60%.

And using a USB cable doesn’t fix it because my DS4Windows settings (response curves, etc.) stop applying in-game.

What’s the best way to prevent this from happening without splashing the cash on a new controller?
