    I got bored... so i came out with this just for fun. :nuts:

    so far,

    Pass
    Dell M1210
    ASUS F8Vr

    Fail
    SONY VAIO FE-28GP - design capacity, hour, voltage incorrect
    Acer Aspire 5550 - design capacity, hour incorrent

    oh wait. i forgot to test it while on A/C that explains the incorrect time remaining. lol

    Nice app, perhaps you want to create a Sidebar gadget to pair with it

    i'm guessing there is an extra multiplier.

    maybe your values needs to be divided by 10 :p

    There are more values to extract like
    cycle count, temperature, manufactured date.
    I didn't include those yet because my battery doesn't support it.
    I should try to find out how to retrieve different design capacity, the values could be stored different location for different batteries.
