It's somewhat surprising that you did all this sophisticated terminal-based research, but completely overlooked one of the most public meters! :-)
In System Information, under Power, last few lines of Battery Information: Battery Installed: Yes Amperage (mA): 0 Voltage (mV): 12515 Since watts = volts x amps, 600mA is about 7.5 watts. > On Jun 16, 2015, at 10:27 AM, Michael <keybou...@gmail.com> wrote: > > So a quick question.
