ACPI readout of power use #343

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

Most laptops feature a power draw readout under the name 
BatteryInfo/DischargeRate. If it is any help performance monitor in windows 
shows this "instance" as ACPI\PNP0C0A\0_0.

I know this reports power draw only when using battery power, but it is a very 
accurate reading of the power draw of the whole computer and can be a very 
useful addition to this program.

I hope you consider this enhancement/feature request and try to include it in 
future versions of Open Hardware Monitor.
