Laptop battery monitoring (BatteryCare)

BatteryCare is better than the built-in Windows battery monitoring function. It provides more information about the battery over time, such as statistics on charge cycles and how much charge the battery currently has. If you use your laptop's battery every day, this software is worth downloading. Monitoring and maximizing the life of your laptop battery is easy with free software called BatteryCare. Clicking the BatteryCare icon in the system tray with your mouse will bring up another menu that allows you to change the power plan, adjust settings, donate to the software provider or display the program's menu. Click the Show button at the top of the menu and you can see more information about the battery that you may have seen before.

Instructions for use:

The first interface that appears is basic information, which can display the current usage and health status of the battery. Here you can see how much life your battery has left. Click Details in the upper right corner of the window, and the pop-up menu will display battery-related information, such as rated capacity, currently used capacity and consumption level. This can help you figure out if you need to buy a new battery. Click Settings in the upper left corner of the window to display battery-related configurations and update BatteryCare options. Most of the general settings have been set by myself, such as starting with the system, and also adding a setting to disable the Aero theme of the Vista system (Windows 7 system also has it) and suspend the service. This can extend battery life by at least a few minutes
