Anyone know of a skin that checks both batteries in a SurfaceBook?

Post by tomgoodell »

The MS Surface Book has a small battery in the screen / tablet, and a larger battery in the keyboard. The skins I've found for checking battery report the overall battery percentage remaining. Does anyone know if there are skins that would report each battery individually, or if it's even possible to do that?

This should be possible. Try this and see if it works for you. http://silverazide.deviantart.com/art/Gadgets-2-2-0-522574269
It will report the active battery; I assume both batteries aren't active at the same time. If they are, you could use HWiNFO and tweak the HWiNFO variant skin to create two skins that each monitor a specific battery.
