**Actually, as I wrote that, I remembered there was a company producing "Renewal" batteries -- they couldn't be recharged, being alkaline, but they could be "renewed" in a special battery charger "renewing station". Wonder if they were just selling an alkaline charger, and plain alkaline cells (with a "Renewal" label) for higher $$.
you have charger's like http://the-gadgeteer.com/review/batt...tery_recharger who you can buy.

Or you can simply charge them using a current limited source and a timer... 50mA for about 16hours for a AA one

23.25C Enjoy!
Any way to get Fahrenheit out of that? Or a script to convert the output? I don't know how much math can be supported in OS2008's scripting.

Here's an updated version that outputs both F and C:

Code:
#!/bin/sh

t=`cat /sys/devices/platform/i2c_omap.1/i2c-1/1-0048/temp1_input 2>/dev/null`
if [ "$t" = "" ]
then
  echo "No temperature sensor detected" > /dev/stderr
  exit 1
else
  c=`echo $t | sed -e 's/\(.*\)\(..\).$/\1\.\2C/'`
  f=`expr $t \* 9 / 5 + 32000 | sed -e 's/\(.*\)\(..\).$/\1\.\2F/'`
  echo $c $f
fi

Has anyone archived or reposted internal-temp? the nitapps site is offline pending renewal. I had to flash my n810 and Backup doesn't seem to keep this file. Thanks...

omweather in the Maemo Extras repository can show the internal temperature in either degrees Celcius or degrees Fahrenheit. I'm not sure this simple tool would be needed when omweather can show the temperature on the home screen, along with the weather.

When did that happen I'm sure I will be getting an email about maemobox.org soon then.
