Coconut Battery

[modestjesse]

I installed this after watching that tip, nice little tool. Was neat to see just how much life I've taken out of my battery.

Just a warning...don't close your laptop with it running. I've done this twice, once on accident, it locks up the computer forcing you to do a hard boot.

Is there a similar program for a PC?

When you have a 3 year old iBook this is a truly depressing app.
I get maybe 15 minutes on battery.

Yeah, but replacements and refurbs are cheap. Went through this with a GC 500 Mhz model I had.
