Reported remaining battery time is quite erratic #210

After using my Phone for about 10 hours with light usage BatteryBot predicted 
that I had about 20 hours remaining.

I then used my Phone more intensively for about 5-10 minutes after which the 
remaining time dropped to 6 hours!!

After a few minutes of not using the Phone, the remaning time went back to 
around 20 hours again.

It seems that the remaining time is calculated based upon very recent usage?

Please use a longer time span to calculate the remaining time. Or perhaps 
better use a third order filter like mechanism for the calculation so the 
remaining time is less jumpy and more according to reality :)

Using BatteryBot Pro 8.0.0 on a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Android version 4.1.2

Hi.

It's working as intended, but I do plan to add more configurability for those 
who prefer a less sensitive prediction.

Thanks,
