coconutBattery is lightweight, so I had no qualms with continously running it, and liked the cleanliness it provided all around.

I’ve continued to use coconutBattery over the years, and paid even more attention to the stats it provided after replacing my MacBook Pro’s battery with a new one myself. With the app I was able to quickly tell that my battery was actually doing really well considering its age, and it was hitting about 80% of its designed capacity. I first came across coconutBattery a few years ago after discovering that my 2010 MacBook Pro’s battery was potentially dying, I figured a third-party app to easily keep tabs on the cycle count would be a good idea. With the battery menu bar option, iStat Menus provides seven different styles to pick from, (I’ve stuck with the default).

Once installed, iStat Menus will add different icons to your menu bar, all of which can be enabled and disabled at will. What we care about today with iStat Menus is the ability to see detailed info on your battery’s current state. Want to watch your memory and memory usage live? You can do that with iStat Menus. The app allows users to add different bars and graphs to their menu bar to help keep an eye on different services and components.

IStat Menus has long been a staple in a pro user’s OS customization toolkit. Let’s take a look at some alternative third-party apps that can bring this feature back and make you feel back at home in your own system. A feature long used by macOS customers all around, the removal of the time remaining may line up with the iOS battery experience but it will leave some users a bit frustrated.

Time will tell and I will report back.One of the casulaties in today’s 10.12.2 Sierra update for macOS is Apple’s decision to remove the inaccurate time remaining on battery estimation built into the system’s battery menu bar icon. I have now restarted iStat as I wonder whether the temperature issue was the effect of its resource usage on top of the other stuff. So I wonder if some aspect of the behaviour in this area has changed. I must confess that I don't remember what the settings were under El Capitan but I would hope they hadn't been changed but you can't take that for granted. I suspect it is the Power Nap setting that did it. That seems to have changed the temperature issue back to how it was before upgrading to High Sierra (ie it was quite cool when I picked it up after leaving it with the lid closed).

Looking at the energy saver set up in system preferences, I finally decided to disable the wifi and Power Nap boxes under Power Adaptor as I tend to leave the MBP connected to the power when I am not using it. After being completely boggled on the internet trying to understand sleep/hibernation/standby I gave up on that side of things. I still believe that iStat Menus used sufficient resources to make a noticeable difference to the temperatures but other factors seem to be at play.ĭespite switching off iStat, I still had the MBP warm in the morning after supposedly being "sleeping". I have been active on my MBP even if not on the forum. I am not inclined to pay for something that I have to completely hamstring to prevent it doing this. Has anyone else noticed this and if so are there any suggestions as to how it should be used to avoid the issue. Switching it off gave an immediate cooling down of the laptop and changing the global setting from medium to slow update frequency also gave a noticeable temperature decrease. Further investigation clearly showed it was iStat Menus. At first I thought it was High Sierra as I have only just upgraded but it then occurred to me that it could be iStat Menus. I close the lid and expect it to go to sleep. I was very surprised this morning to find that my MBP was warm as if it had been active overnight. It works OK and I was happy with the summary on the menu bar. Looking at reviews iStat Menus seemed quite good. I tried XRG and didn't think too much of it. I looked at Activity monitor which is just too much info. Main reason I am trying it is that I want a replacement for the discontinued widget iStat Pro just so that from time to time I can look at aspects of the machines performance.
