    Hi guys,

    does anyone know a program (or C++/C# Code) to determine detailled battery information such as cycle count, battery charge capacity (in mAH), battery manufacturer etc...?
    I can get the "normal" data via WinAPI (GetPowerStatus) but that just gives me very basic data (remaining run time, battery charge percentage).

    Thanks!

    And its a G71V if its important.

    I don't have nor know any code, but you could use batterymon which basically does what you're requesting.
