Abstract
Usage data of a device is maintained over some time period, such as a couple weeks or a couple months. This usage data reflects an amount of energy that is used or stored for different time durations each having a various combinations of different state values of the device, such as a screen state, a power source state, a power mode state, a battery saver state, a processor consumption state, and so forth. This provides a record of a capacity drain rate or capacity charge rate for the battery for each combination of state values. At any given time, the device can determine the current state values of the device. The capacity drain rates or capacity charge rates for previous time durations having the same state values as the current state values are used to determine an estimated capacity drain rate or capacity charge rate for the device.
