Nowadays more and more computers are mobile devices. The most important prerequisite for a portable computer is a rechargeable battery that powers the device. Batteries are not really cheap replacement parts and are subject to wear and tear. Their lifespan should be optimized by handling them with due care. Battery Monitor is a useful little utility application in this regard.
Features
- Displaying charging status in the dock: This is useful if you can't or don't want to use the display in macOS's menu bar, for example when you have a screen that isn't very wide. Battery Monitor can also show estimated remaining run time in the Dock menu, even if you're using an operating system that hides this information in the menu bar.
- Display of internal battery information: In addition to the charge status, many other technical characteristics can be retrieved, such as temperature, discharge current, number of charge cycles, expected lifespan or capacity. The condition of each battery cell and the battery manufacturer can also be determined.
- Capture of charge and discharge curves: The history of values measured by the battery unit can be displayed graphically. This way you can, for example, plot charge and discharge curves, which is one of the most important characteristics for the health of a battery. You can also examine the graphics profile of the computer's amperage draw, which helps you find "power-guzzling apps."
- Accounting for the aging process of the battery: Battery Monitor automatically keeps a log of the battery's charge capacity, which will decrease as it ages. This helps you track exactly how the battery's behavior changes over time. You can evaluate whether your battery is working normally or is faulty. You can also more accurately predict when the time is right to buy a new battery. For computers with replaceable battery packs, Battery Monitor can of course monitor multiple battery packs at once.
- Notifications during charging or discharging: In addition to displaying the charging status in the Dock, Battery Monitor can optionally inform you about the progress of the charging or discharging process in other ways. Unobtrusive notifications can be set using Speech or macOS's Notification Center
- Additional overview of connected Bluetooth batteries: If supported battery-powered Bluetooth devices are connected to your Mac, displaying battery levels can also be integrated into Battery Monitor.
