I've been playing with my Win98, HP laptop's power meter and a VB app using the sysinfo control to monitor battery charge/discharge.

The info seems to be updating every 2 minutes, but with > 4 year-old batts, a lot can happen in 2 min.

Anyone know if the interval can be changed, e.g. to once every minute?
Or if there's a better way to monitor this?

Thanks, DaveBo
