I think you'll find the temps are "motherboard", "1st CPU" and "2nd CPU" 
so the third value is bogus for you if you only have one CPU.  Same for 
Vcore = 1st CPU and 2nd CPU.  I believe healthd lets you trim out some 
of the meaningless values (I've never quite bothered) and it sometimes 
works where mbmon doesn't .
