Feature Request - Support Desktop Macs #25
Comments
Hello @rurza, I just wanted to ask if you have a follow-up on this issue. I saw that there were a ton of commits pushed since I opened this issue, so I retested it on my iMac, but it still crashes. I've attached a copy of the crash report below, in case it's useful.

Hi! I really appreciate the work you've done with BatFi and it's nice to see that it's getting updated again. I originally brought up this feature request with you over email, but I would like to see the support of desktop Macs (iMac, Mac Mini, Mac Studio, Mac Pro, etc.) with BatFi, so this issue might serve as just a reference.
Of course, this would require taking a different approach because desktop Macs do not have a preinstalled battery in them and can only have one through the installation of a UPS. Regardless, I think that it would be helpful to transfer the app into a simple energy monitor in the absence of the monitor. There would be no battery statistics, and the menu bar icon could either show a battery with a question mark (which is what other battery monitor apps, such as Battery Buddy, do), or it could transfer into a lightbulb icon (which is what System Settings does). There would still be information available for the power consumption overview, and maybe the battery level graph could be changed into energy impact over time instead.
Thank you again for creating such a powerful menu bar battery monitor that is miles ahead of Apple's default menu bar extra!
