More than one battery

[Malte Thoma <thoma-xhPu7QH+N+StU9/U+hoEgQ@public.gmane.org>]

QUESTION TO THE GURUS:
Are there more things (excpt the battery) that could me multiple?


Hallo Daniel,
thank you for your message.

You are right. Until know heatload does only support ONE battery.
You change the one which is used in the configuration file.
If it doesn't help please let me know.
Your message is a good reason to include a mulit-battery-support as far 
as possible (lets say within one week ;-)


Greetings,

Malte
