Hi,

For me the battery charge as shown never diminishes. I can work for
hours and the charge shown will be the actual charge in the battery when
the ac was removed. Meanwhile I can see the actual charge decreasing
via /proc.

If I plug the ac back in then the correct remaining battery charge is
reported. I think that the charge as shown is only updated on power
change events.
