OK, I made new version and it shows me battery level.

The problem is the hardware of my ASUS notebook. It will not provide "Design capacity".

So I made the follow:

if Current Capacity > LastMaxCapacity then

LastMaxCapacity = CurrentCapacity.

So it will remember the number and use it for calculation. Just learn it!

 

There is some problems else:

1. There is no updating of readout. Somehow internal polling is not working. But there is an external polling if we launch HWMonitorSMC providing 1 seconds interval for updating readouts.

2. Brightness changed at startup but not changed if we unplug power while should be.

 

Please test and provide your observations and propositions. Provide your kernel.log and DSDT.aml.
