I'd like current_avg more, but if I cat it manually, it changes on order of seconds, and quite significantly... which suggest shorter polling interval would be needed. user@devuan:/sys/class/power_supply/battery$ date; cat current_now current_avg Thu May 3 09:33:05 CEST 2018 -71000 -218408 user@devuan:/sys/class/power_supply/battery$ date; cat current_now current_avg Thu May 3 09:33:06 CEST 2018 -61000 -200238 user@devuan:/sys/class/power_supply/battery$ date; cat current_now current_avg Thu May 3 09:33:06 CEST 2018 -51000 -209879 user@devuan:/sys/class/power_supply/battery$ date; cat current_now current_avg Thu May 3 09:33:07 CEST 2018 -56000 -72308 user@devuan:/sys/class/power_supply/battery$ date; cat current_now current_avg Thu May 3 09:33:08 CEST 2018 -37000 -211362 > Hmm oh and the POWER_SUPPLY_CHARGE_COUNTER value should be monitored > by your libbattery and it's low value and high value should be saved > to a file.

I'll look into that... but probably will do experiments with python, first.
