Battery Estimator on ALL devices
Chronon:
Battery Capacity definitely shows up in the main build on the Gigabeat. I don't have a Sansa, but I don't see why it wouldn't be there. You are saying that there is no Battery Capacity item in the settings menus? I believe it should be under:
--- Code: --- Settings > General Settings > System > Battery > Battery Capacity
--- End code ---
You aren't confusing this menu item with this patch: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/7092?histring=runtime are you?
Llorean:
It may not be available on Sansa because there aren't any known user-installable batteries of capacities different from the official one.
If you do not have a different capacity battery, there is no reason as far as proper use goes for the setting.

nah i definitely checked and read the manual before i posted its not heir
To lor's response it would be nice to have if its not available because the rockbox program doesn't calc remaining time correctly at the moment.
Llorean:
Then fix the problem with the calculation, don't ask for a broken hackish way to avoid the problem.

Broken hackash way = fast fix for now
Does anyone know exactly were the code is located in the source responsible for estimating battery life i will take a look into it see if i can correct it
