Battery Guru

Maximize your battery life, and optimize your BlackBerry PlayBook usage.
Battery Guru reveals your batterys secrets! No longer are you limited to the simple percent remaining estimate. Watch battery voltage, check power when using or when charging, and view a plot of past activity, with readings updated every two minutes 30s when charging.
You can even see the health of your battery, relative to the manufacturers claimed capacity, and monitor changes over time so youll know when it needs to be replaced.
The app keeps a record of all past readings, for as long as you want. Keep weeks, months, or years of history, with an option to automatically purge older readings.
An export feature lets you retrieve the historical data in CSV form whenever you want, for viewing and analysis in a spreadsheet program. Exported files are available in documents/BatteryGuru, from any file browser, or from the PlayBook network share over WiFi.
Battery Guru is carefully engineered to use no measurable extra power, so rest assured that you will not drain your battery by leaving Battery Guru running. It works even when inactive or when your tablet goes to sleep.
Bonus feature! Select Allow Sleep default or Keep Awake to prevent the tablet from going to sleep. Use Showcase mode and keep any part of Battery Gurus window visible even minimized for this to work properly. Useful when running other apps which dont properly handle the standby state e.g. webbased streaming music players, or just when you want to observe the battery drain caused by another app, over a period longer than the standby timeout allows.
