For missing fan data please see the wiki https://github.com/corecoding/Vitals/wiki/Missing-voltage-or-fan-data - If that doesn't help, then unfortunately fan data is not supported.

For the battery, try changing the battery slot in settings. If that doesn't work, please share the directory contents of /sys/class/power_supply/

for me sensors outputs this:

Adapter: ACPI interface
in0:          15.80 V  
curr1:         1.84 A

and i can choose to display 15 Volts in the top bar. What i want is the wattage. So just multiplying 15.80 × 1.84

i can also output the wattage with the following command:

$ upower --dump | grep rate
    energy-rate:         12,705 W

upower talks to a the upowerd daemon which runs as root. It will have different access to your hardware.

For the battery, try changing the battery slot in settings. If that doesn't work, please share the directory contents of /sys/class/power_supply/
