NAME
acpipmtr -- ACPI Power Meter
SYNOPSIS
acpipmtr* at acpi?
DESCRIPTION
The acpipmtr device driver provides support for ``power meters''. These are sensors that approximate the current power consumption of the system. Alternatively, a power meter may measure also the power gain when the system is connected to an external power supply. The available information (namely, the power consumption) is made avail- able through the envsys(4) API and the envstat(8) command.
