You Have 0 Minutes of Charge Remaining, by Jeffrey Veen

You Have 0 Minutes of Charge Remaining

I have a feeling -- call it a hunch -- that the battery in my Powerbook might be experiencing some performance issues. I downloaded XCharge, let it run, and found the following. I'm no expert, but my analysis of the data suggests there are problems. Time for a new battery, I reckon.

XBattery is different from X-Charge, but interesting also. Thanks for the link, John.

I would have, btw, linked to the X-Charge, but the developer doesn't have a page dedicated to it. You can see it by scrolling down a ways here: http://www.pol-online.net/index.php?page=freeware

You are lucky. My battery is so shot that it just goes into sleep mode without even warning me. I have about 10 minutes max. Dealmac had a good post for a TiBook battery for $99.
