Battery Monitor Plus

Extended battery monitor for Noctalia Shell.

Features

• Bar widget using Noctalia's original battery graphic, with optional current power draw and remaining time.
• Panel details for status, discharge or charging power, remaining or full-charge time, charge level, battery health, and current power profile.
• Settings for showing power draw and remaining time in the bar, plus display refresh interval.
• Power and time estimates are read directly from /sys/class/power_supply and related hwmon nodes when available, with UPower used only as a UI fallback.
• English and Simplified Chinese translations.

Layout

Notes

Power draw and time estimates come from kernel power_supply/hwmon interfaces when possible. If the battery reports 0 W while full or idle, the plugin also checks battery and online adapter hwmon nodes for a live hardware power value. Battery health still comes from Noctalia's BatteryService/UPower. Some systems or batteries may not report every field.
