Comment 4 for bug 1744366

I have similar problem on xubuntu 16.04. The only problem is that it occurs with only one of my two batteries. This leads me to consider that the problem may be stemming from an interaction with the battery metadata. The odd thing about the battery (the one that instigates the faulty behavior) is that it reports an unusually high energy-full value (>65Wh) whereas the design capacity is actually much smaller (~5Wh). I speculate that this could cause confusion into the actual state of charge and may prematurely shut the laptop down....
