I also checked my old HP nx9030 and the battery label says this: 11.1V and 4400mAh (which is 48.84Wh) but GPM says that design charge is 88.8Wh! This is obviously not correct - I can provide the photo from the battery label if you don't trust me. here is other info from HP nx9030 laptop battery: # cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info present: yes design capacity: 6000 mAh last full capacity: 2528 mAh battery technology: rechargeable design voltage: 14800 mV design capacity warning: 250 mAh design capacity low: 150 mAh capacity granularity 1: 10 mAh capacity granularity 2: 25 mAh model number: JM-6 serial number: 4063 battery type: LION OEM info: Hewlett-Packard # cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/state present: yes capacity state: ok charging state: discharging present rate: 1419 mA remaining capacity: 2272 mAh present voltage: 11316 mV On 10/18/07, Valent Turkovic <valent.turkovic@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Here is the info from 2 year oly HP Compaq nx9030: > > # cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info > present: yes > design capacity: 6000 mAh > last full capacity: 2784 mAh > battery technology: rechargeable > design voltage: 14800 mV > design capacity warning: 250 mAh > design capacity low: 150 mAh > capacity granularity 1: 10 mAh > capacity granularity 2: 25 mAh > model number: JM-6 > serial number: 4063 > battery type: LION > OEM info: Hewlett-Packard > > > and GPM says this: > > Vendor: Hewlett-Packard > Serial Number: 4063 > Model: JM-6 > Current charge: 34.6 Wh > Design charge: 88 Wh > > Who is showing wrong info? > > On 10/18/07, seth vidal <skvidal@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > > > On Thu, 2007-10-18 at 15:35 +0200, Valent Turkovic wrote: > > > Sorry for long subject, but what to do when gnome power manager shows > > > wrong battery capacity? > > > > > > I have two laptops for who I see that battery capacity is stated as > > > 88.8Wh but it is not!
