This would be great for batteries that don't send the right values too BatteryBar (like mine).

My suggestion is that you add the ability to display (only on request) how long the computer has been running on battery since the last charge. This feature would get me to pay for the program.

If its showing eg. remaining 3:18 and its 17:55 oclock I find it much more useful to be shown that I can work until 21.13 instead of showing 3:18 or 80% capacity.

Add the option to show/hide features such as "Charge/Discharge Rate".

My computer doesn't show that info, besides it could make it a little more compact, more minimalistic.

Thanks!

Usefull when we want to format the notebook and restore the settings and profiles after it.

add an option "hide to System Tray" to move the soft to system tray from task bar

New battery technology does not like to be fully charged or fully discharged. I spend a lot of time at my desk and during that time I would like to keep the battery cycling between two charge points ( 30-80%) to extend the battery life.

It would also be cool if you could throttle back the charge rate. My system runs cooler (charges slower) when I use my old 65W power brick vs. the 90W. When I have the time, I go for cooler. It too improves battery life.

Just like the lenovo power manager, when on ac, the display view automatically changes to percent charging and when unplugged it will change to time remaining.

I have a widescreen and I put my Windows Taskbar on the side instead of at the bottom so my QuickLaunch bar can also be vertical instead of horizontal. BatteryBar does not shrink to a small-icon size while in this mode so it takes up too much space on the taskbar. Please consider this configuration in the next update.

I want batterybar show cpu temperature

I always forget in which power plan is currently set, so I'd like to see it in the battery display, ideally with a given icon/color.

If I have multiple users accounts, the battery profile is saved only for each user. When I license battery bar, the license is activated only for one user. It should be saved for all users.

While Windows reports capacity in mWh, it also provides voltage, which means that Battery bar could compute a reasonable estimate for mAh, just by dividing mWh by the average voltage remaining.

While mWh yields theoretically more consistant draw, mAh would allow people to callibrate their expectations with the specifications printed on the battery (which typically only lists mAh rating).

I would like to suggest the ability to move the battery bar display so that it resides with the rest of the taskbar icons. That way, everything is in one place and battery bar's display can be turned on (in Win7) and in return turn off default Windows battery icon. It would be nice to have the following options:
a) 16x16 pixel icon in the taskbar when mouse-over, shows me the info about the battery or time left.
b) forget about the icon, but a simple time remaining text on the taskbar when mouse-over also show the info on battery.

Show details that are shown in the tooltip in the Vista Sidebar

Could you add an option to hide the bar if no battery is present? bought the software would be a nice addition

BatteryBar will move on taskbar (My OS: Win7), if there are more icons on right, then BatteryBar will move to left, but it can't adjust the position after some icons disappear. And I can't adjust the position manually.
