amperage metric #2

Open anarcat opened 2 years ago

anarcat commented 2 years ago

would it be possible to have an amperage output as well? watts are actually really nice and useful, but I happen to have a lot of already recorded metrics in amperes instead of watts, which makes comparisons difficult.

battery metrics are also often reported in mAh (e.g. from tlp-stat -b) which makes it hard to validate the output of the script from other metrics.

thanks!

Oops, this must have gotten lost in my notifications, sounds like an easy fix for output, will get around to it next time I circle back to improvements for this util. Just as an FYI, amps are stored (either as charge_now or current_now) in the sqlite DB though, so should be easy to query for the raw data.
