BatteryBar : Battery Meter To Your Windows Task Bar
BatteryBar is a freeware Windows utility that places a good looking battery meter to your Windows task bar. It gives you the status of your laptop’s battery charge and expected duration that your battery will last in Hours:Minutes, in a visually appealing way. There are three colour codes that the author has used to indicate the left battery charge:
1. Green (> 40% remaining of battery charge)
2. Yellow (25-40% of remaining battery charge)
3. Red (<>
4. Blue ( When the battery is getting recharged in AC power mode)
5. Black ( When the battery is fully charged and on AC power mode)
BatteryBar runs on Windows Vista and requires .NET Framework 2.0. I could not test this in Windows XP, it would be appreciated if any of you can give feedback on BatteryBar running on Windows XP.
