Modern Battery Widget
Every battery reading Windows knows, on one clean panel on your desktop.
Sits on the desktop under your windows, drawn as the thing it is: a cell filled to the charge.

About Modern Battery Widget
Windows will tell you a percentage. Everything else about the battery is buried in a command-line report you have to generate by hand.
Modern Battery Widget puts all of it on the desktop, on one panel, updating as you work.
The whole readout
Status, time remaining, percentage, charge remaining, live draw, design capacity, capacity remaining, voltage, condition and power source. Nothing hidden behind a click.
What is actually measured
Capacity remaining is real: what the pack holds when full, against what it was built to hold. Draw is what the machine is pulling right now, in watts, straight from the battery rather than from an average that lags behind the load.
Compact when you want it
Half of those lines never change. Compact keeps the ones that move — status, time, percentage, draw, capacity and condition — and puts the rest away.
Light, dark, or frosted so the desktop shows through. Any size. Sits on the wallpaper or above your windows.
No account needed. No sign-in needed. Nothing leaves your PC unless you send feedback or turn on backup. No ads.
Built for Windows 11, and at home on Windows 10.
