Comment 26 for bug 393008

Scott,

Additionally, your recommendation gives the following:

Again, whether or not the laptop is charging or discharging is correctly identified. However, there is clearly an issue determining the rate at which it is doing so. The percentage will update when checking the battery state multiple times, so it is certainly charging/discharging at a rate other than 0W.
