Time on Battery

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.

        Excellent idea! That´s will make all difference in the program. I will wait for this!

        So how's it going? Are we about to see it implemented? The way you suggested for displaying runtime if not fully charged seems fine, maybe you could estimate a total runtime from the numbers.

        I love this idea. If this feature gets implemented, i will undoubtedly purchase this program.

        I really do like this idea. more like how Chris explained.
        I think it is better to have a record stating the time between unplugging and plugging with the battery percentage.

        Question: Would this timer report the time since the last time the power cord was disconnected, regardless of the capacity level of the battery? For example, if you unplug it while it still has only 80% battery remaining (didn't fully charge), would that trigger the timer reset?

        I could say something along the lines of "A/C was disconnected 1 hour 10 minutes ago. Battery had 80% remaining when A/C was disconnected" (obviously it would be more concise than that, but that's the general idea).
