Re: Battery Monitor: what's your typical DisChargeCurrent level?

Does anyone know if the battery driver is reporting the temperature correctly?

I've started paying attention to Battery Monitor a little more recently because I'm trying out the rapid-charge drivers. I'm concerned that the extra current the drivers dump into the batter will cause excess heat, which will reduce overall life of the batter. Battery Monitor only reports 30degC, while I know there are temperature fluctuations beyond that.

I'd also be interested in trending this data if anyone knows where BatMon came from; it'd be nice to have that program trend your power consumption, which you could then upload to your computer and mark the various times were wi-fi / calls / bluetooth / backlight were adjusted.
