Battery maximiser and power manager

[tom2517]

What is the difference? my T43 came with power manager but I didn't not see battery maximiser. Now I have a message from Access IBM that there is a newer version of battery maximiser available.

How can I find out if I have battery maximiser because I didn't see it anywhere...

Thanks in advance.

Same thing - Power Manager on the T43 replaced the Maximiser, which came on the T42 and prior. PM has some nice fake graphs, and the interface is a bit cleaner than BM. PM also has some more settings for charge thresholds, I think.

I downloaded PM and have been running it on my T42 for a few months. No big deal.

Hi Kenn, thanks for the info, I guess I don't need maximiser then. I have not used windows and IBM (apple user) in more than 5 years now so sorry for the silly question.
