above max capacity
Authored by: lebnjay on Feb 16, '05 03:23:11PM

wow, on my new 12" powerbook I get this

"IOBatteryInfo" = ({"Capacity"=4555,"Amperage"=18446744073709550267,
"CycleCount"=6,"Current"=4150,"Voltage"=11835,
"Flags"=4,"AbsoluteMaxCapacity"=4400})

showing a capacity greater than the AbsoluteMaxCapacity. Not sure how that can be.

also it only shows a cycle count of 6, I have had this powerbook since Saturday and and thought I had gone through more cycles than that.

above max capacity

In contrast, my wife's Pismo from 2000 still on the same battery reads:

| | | | "IOBatteryInfo" = ({"Capacity"=10000,"Amperage"=0,"Cycle Count"=756,"Current"=0,"Voltage"=0,"Flags"=32,"AbsoluteMaxCapacity"=4800},{"Capacity"=546,"Amperage"=18446744073709550163,"Cycle Count"=756,"Current"=2,"Voltage"=10946,"Flags"=148,"AbsoluteMaxCapacity"=4800})

Capacity=10000 sounds a bit off though so I'm running the battery down to see if it changes any stats. I've been on 0% for the last 20 minutes or so without any ill effect.
