Hi!
QtBatteryWidget is just another battery widget for the N900.
It can display: voltage, charge, temperature and time left.
In the settings window you can choose the informations to display, the type of percentage (module bq27x00, standard or dr_frost_dk based on his battery meter widget), the percentage style (graphical, standard progressbar or textual) and the widget opacity.
The percentage and time left are updated when a dbus signal is emitted by the system, so time left can take some time to update.
If you want to update it click on the widget.
The time left is based on actual consumption (only if module bq27x00 or the command i2cget is present) or from the last percentage change.

It should display the time left depending on what you are doing with the device ("time left if you continue to do what you're doing").
I don't know how much precise is the power consumption value (taken from /sys/class/power_supply/bq27200-0/current_now or /usr/sbin/i2cget -y 2 0x55 0x14 w)...

I'll add a note in the about screen, or I'll remove it if you don't want me to use it.

Looks nice, but uses just a little too much cpu for me (about 1-4%).
It would be acceptable for a program, but not for a widget constantly in the background (in my opinion that is).
Do other people experience the same cpu usage?

4% can happen when it's updating data; the preogressbar should take from 0.75 to 2/3%.
Try to set the textual style.
