COCONUTBATTERY SCREESNHOTS PORTABLE

The processor runs around 128F regardless whether Coconut was running or not. Everything from LaunchBar to EarthDesk to Acrobat Pro to Photoshop to. Currently running a whack of applications. Actually, can't ever remember it kicking in, even doing serious crunching.

COCONUTBATTERY SCREESNHOTS PORTABLE

While this model portable has always run warm to hot the fan has almost never come on. Coconut is using between 1 - 2% from Activity Monitor. Janu18:17 EST #6 No fan or excessive heat on my 15' 1.67GHz AI PB.When I quit Coconut battery things return to normal. Strangely activity monitor only reports Coconut using between 1 and 2 % CPU. Janu03:32 EST #5 I have noticed that on my 12' 1.0, CPU usage appears to cycle dramatically every few seconds from almost minimum to maximum.If I had my old 15' PowerBook G4 I could test it as well. Janu13:42 EST #4 That's a good data point.Running Activity monitor, Temperature Monitor and Coconut Battery Dave Thompson (ATPM Staff) Max processor temp 118 to 122.5F before the fans start on low speed. Janu13:26 EST #3 This doesn't seem to happen with my last model 12' 1.5Ghz G4 powerbook.It would be interested if someone would test that. I don't have access to any of the PowerPC machines anymore, so I can't confirm they respond similarly. Janu11:16 EST #2 It's interesting that you noticed this too.Janu12:38 EST #1 I've also had the issue of increased temperature and fans revving up once coconut battery is launched, even without anything else runnin except the finder.
