Lifehacker points to a fantastic little utility That I already see benefits. When using Windows on my Netbook, I’m at regular intervals to check how much battery charge remains. That means every so often, I am interested in the system tray for the battery icon. I get a general idea of the remaining runtime by the symbol, but specific information you need me, the mouse over and float. Would not it be nice if there is a simpler method of providing additional benefits?
That is where Power Meter Plus comes in. This little application places a power meter on your desktop at all times. Well, when I first heard that I thought I would not want to waste space on the MSI Wind is little 10 2-Zoll-Display. As they say, the devil in the details, and I’m glad that I dug into them. It turns out that Power Meter Plus uses the “increasingly visible” concept for which it is beneficial. If your battery is fully charged, the transparent power meter is barely visible and hardly noticeable when you really do not need it. As your battery discharges, however, the transparency of the level meter Power Plus reduced, so that there is more to the fore. In this way, it is rather a useful reminder of how your battery capacity is approaching zero. You can also specify that they are from one side of the screen to another simply by mousing over it, it’s never really in the way. Very smooth as the most transparent screen cap from my wind, about 80% of juice left, the Windows-based estimates more than four hours.
