Just rooted yesterday and getting ready to get SetCPU to overclock but also need a "good" battery temp. indicator also. What does everyone use? Pros vs. Cons?
The updated SetCPU also has temp monitors in it. I run that and Temp Monitor, redundant, but better safe than sorry. They're usually within 2-4 degrees F of each other.
Battery dog is a good one to track battery stats over time and plot them. The interface leaves a lot to be desired but it has everything you need. Plus you can grab the .csv file that it generates and plot it yourself in excel if you want.
I currently have CPU set to 800/250 most of the time, on-demand. I haven't seen any temps remotely close to being concerning yet, rarely more than 102 or 104. I had it clocked to 1000 at one point, only a short time but saw temps in the 111 to 112 range. But I also haven't subjected it to much of a load, at this point.
Admittedly, I'm not very knowledgeable, but I'm not worried. until I see temps @120. The default fail safe is a bit higher than that, and mine is actually set at about 113
