the specific execution flow can be seen in the following steps:
step A1, the first electronic equipment acquires a second time period, wherein the time starting point of the second time period is the current time or the time after the current time;

under the condition that the first electronic device determines the third time period, the first electronic device can count the variation of the second battery capacity of the first electronic device in the third time period;
optionally, because the variation of the second battery power in the third time period on different dates is different, the first electronic device may generate a target list according to the variation of the second battery power in the third time period on different dates, the target list is sorted according to the priority of the second battery power from high to low, the first electronic device obtains the variation of the second battery power in the highest priority in the target list, and the first electronic device determines step A4 according to the third time period with the highest priority;
and step A4, the first electronic device determines the working current according to the variation of the second battery capacity and the third time period.
Specifically, the first electronic device may calculate the operating current according to formula 3;
