Jesse MacFadyen commented on CB-6838:
-------------------------------------

I recently fixed several issues in the wp8 version of the plugin.
The spec has been updated, and there are numerous improvements.  We should probably tie those efforts together.

> While investigating the Battery Plugin, I've discovered quite a few issues with it that tells me that this will never actually work:
> 1. This listens to BATTERY_CHANGED.  We can never listen to this Broadcast because the battery ALWAYS changes and this will drain the battery.  Android explicitly prevents this event from being listened to
> 2. We don't set up a BroadcastReceiver for BATTERY_LOW, BATTERY_CHARGED
> 3. We have no idea whether the phone is plugged into an AC Adapter or a Computer, this is important information to have.
> I think that it's probably a good idea for this plugin to be completely re-written.
