Just wanted to make sure you noticed that there was a new patch attached
to this mail :) I copied it again here.

On the device we're currently developing, battery sizes of ~2.8Ah and
current flow of ~600mA are typical.

With that values, the life_sec computation overflows due to the
multiplication by 3600.
