Hi guys,

Is there an App that will launch a timer once the power cord is disconnected from my Mac and starts counting how long it stays on battery power?

Thanks!
 
Thanks a lot!

Have you tested any?

I downloaded the free one to test it out tomorrow when I take my laptop with me to work.

But the paid one looks mich nicer and simpler. Much more like something Apple would do.

No, I don't worry about tracking it that closely. If I'm interested, I just note the time when I unplug and again when I plug in. There are many factors that impact your battery life. See the BATTERY LIFE FROM A CHARGE section of the following link for details.

This should answer most, if not all, of your battery questions:
 
I just bought a new battery to my Mac and wanted to see how well it performs.
I always forget to look at the time, that's why I need an app for that.
Thanks!
