BATTman Battery Management Software

BATTman 1.1. is a real-time battery management software for the 95LX that will safely turn off your 95LX when your batteries are low. This prevents sudden data loss and allows users to use rechargeable batteries in their 95LX. Rechargeable batteries have a very sharp drop off at the end of their discharge cycle. As a result, the 95LX does not have enough time to provide warning for the users to save their work before valuable data is lost. BATTman uses a proprietary Predictive Discharge Algorithm (PDA) which predicts the drop off point long before this happens. This allows users ample time to save their work and replace their batteries.

Once BATTman is installed, a pop-up window appears every time you power-up your 95LX. The pop-up window reports your real-time battery status. BATTman also monitors your backup batteries, both inside your HP 95LX and on your RAM card. In addition, BATTman's PDA supports NiCds, NiMH (Nickel Metal Hydride), Alkaline and Lithium batteries.
