About BatteryInfoView

BatteryInfoView displays the battery name, manufacturer, serial number, manufacture date, power state, current and full-charge capacity, designed capacity, health percentage, voltage, charge or discharge rate, chemistry and cycle count, plus estimated remaining and charging times.

A log view records battery status at an interval you choose, including on suspend and resume, so you can see how fast the battery drains on standby. Data exports to CSV, HTML, XML or text. Some fields appear only if the battery reports them.

Strengths

Battery health from designed versus full-charge capacity
Timed log that also captures standby drain
Capacity in mWh or mAh, with charge cycle count
Portable 32-bit and 64-bit builds

Limitations

Serial number, manufacture date and cycle count only appear if the battery provides them
Time estimates are based on the last 30 seconds of activity
