Usage and Config

(imported topic written by BenKus)

Is anyone interested in a Fixlet to detect if you have a system with a bad Sony battery?

Has anyone started this Fixlet/property?

I can help, but I don’t have an affected computer… Can someone with an affected computer run this query and email me/post the results:

q: selects “DeviceID, Name, Caption from win32_battery” of wmi

Hey Ben.

Thanks for the script. Because there were multiple results, I decided to bring back only the Name which in most cases yields the model #.
