Battery Monitor For Mac

Depending on your charging habits, the health of you Mac’s battery tends to deprecate in time, so keeping a close look on its status is highly advisable, if you don’t want to be taken by surprise.

Battery Monitor (formerly known as Battery Diag) is a small status bar menu app that comes with a very stylish design and provides quick access to general information about the battery model and its current state. However, the Battery Monitor utility stays out of your way at all times, so it will not disrupt your workflow.

You can easily activate the Battery Monitor main panel by simply pressing the app icon placed in your status bar. This way you can see details about the current battery charge, but also the total battery capacity. The information is provided via a simple yet colorful bar graph.

The same area allows you to see your current power source (battery or cord), the battery condition, the number of total and partial discharge cycles, and a small battery timer.

The latter is very important, because it lets you know how much time you have left until you have to plug in your computer and charge the battery.

Battery Monitor provides a separate panel where you can view more technical details about your battery: the remaining capacity, the full capacity, and the design capacity, the current battery temperature, and the power usage. Moreover, you can see the power source used at the moment and the battery condition.

Last but not least, Battery Monitor allows you to use different themes for the user interface: as a result, you can personalize your experience and make sure that the app is matching your Mac’s look and feel.

Battery Monitor proposes a simple solution for keeping and eye on the state of your battery without having to use complex tools: the app stays out of your way at all times, but is able to provide the information you need almost instantly.
