enjoy your decreased battery life and non-updating percentage.
Isn't easier and better to write this line like this :
${execi 10 hal-device bme | awk /battery.charge_level.percentage/'{print $3"% "}'} ?

First of all, You're banging on half-a-year old thread without any reason.

As for Your question - because we do not like to breed laziness LMGTFY, or what?

hello. im using Conky + layout switcher without any problems for a long time, but now after i start any conky layout...a strange green overlayed message appear...that is not clearly readable....but is something like this:

<h3 style="font-size: 30px;"> This domain name has expired.</h3>
<h4 style="font-size: 16px;">
In order to restore the domain and continue the service you will need....

Thank you

Using power kernel v52, I see the uevent stuff is actually in /sys/class/power_supply/rx51-battery/uevent

I can read the uevent file. But since /bq27200-0/ is hardcoded (see first post), what can one do to get conky to read from rx51-battery?

Nobody? Ok...i've created a Queen Beecon Widget to display the battery temperature. Here's the command line for it:

Code:
awk 'BEGIN { FS="=" } /POWER_SUPPLY_TEMP/ { print $2/10 "°C"; if ($2 < 350) exit 0; else if ($2 <400) exit 1; else exit 2 }' /sys/class/power_supply/rx51-battery/uevent
Note the code will exit 0 if the temperature is less than 35 C, else exit 1 if it's less than 40, else exit 2. This can be used in QBW to select the widget background color, e.g. red when the battery gets hot.

changing it in Conky sourcecode and pushing updated version. It should be trivial to do, I might take look on it when I have free time (which most likely mean I won't look at it 'till I die of old age, sadly. so, feel free to implement my theorizations in practice ).

Please clarify. Did you change it or are you postponing until old age? What'd you mean by theorizations?

Also, using USB Mode, after switching to "USB host mode (with boost)", which "stops BME", conky will read display some temperature, which also seems to have tenths of a degree Celsius (unlike in the uevent file); I have not applied any conky update of yours yet. Would you know how/why?
