    im using power manager 2 on my t400.

    but i cant find how to show wattage (like instead of time remaining) on the gauge.

    thanks!

    The gauge can only show the time remaining or the percentage of battery power left. Wattage isn't an option, unfortunately.

    yeah, I think there might be a 3rd party app that lets us see the wattage usage. RM Clock might be one of them but I haven't used it enough to really be sure.

    EDIT:

    There are a few available here: http://gosoftware.org/taskbar-battery-_tag/
