How it Works

iBatt digs deep into your system to find out as much as it can about your laptop's battery. It then presents that data to you with as much depth and clarity as possible. It can also optionally share your battery data with the rest of the world to help build our server-side battery database. iBatt lets you mine this data to see how your battery stacks up against others.

What it Costs

There is a 30 day free trial. After that, a license is $19. iBatt does not expire.

What's new in Version 3?

iBatt was almost entirely written for version 3, with a focus on a modernized graphical display and a more efficient backend.

iBatt 3 uses Quartz graphics for rich animated displays, but does not use power-hungry technologies like OpenGL or Core Animation. This means that MacBooks with two graphics processors will not turn on their dedicated graphics processing chip in order to serve iBatt. In fact, iBatt will even let you know when that chip is and is not activated.

iBatt 3’s data logging engine is now powered by SQLite. This robust and efficient backend means that data queries are handled faster, resulting in more responsive graphing preformance.

MacOS X Universal iBatt requires an Intel Mac with MacOS X 10.6 or later.
