Show some information
The first plugin is very simple. An user control that just shows some static text (see the lower info on the screen shot):

This is a very simple application to show the values of GetSystemPowerStatusEx2 in live view.
That enables you to see how much power is drawn of the battery if you switch WiFi on or off for example.
On industrial devices you can also check the power consumption of special modules like a barcode scanner.
