LVMTopBat is a taskbar battery meter which is very special because it's tiny. Only 8.5 KB.
Downside of this - it doesn't have any options. Also it receives notifications on battery as they come in, so its very accurate without having to constantly check the battery and generate unnecessary CPU load.
It takes its behavior from the device driver which is why it will act differently on different devices when battery is charging. (Some devices report battery full, others report accurate percentage, yet others "slide" it in a loop).
Also it starts just after MS logo (as you can see from the screen shot) and doesn't fill the whole screen (14 pixels are left so the units could be evenly sized).
How to use:
- Unzip and put the file anyware you want (except storage card).
- Create shortcut in windowsstartup.
- Click on LVMTopBat.exe or reboot device to activate.
