The remaining battery charge is indicated on the top-left side
of the dialog box.
With repeated discharges and recharges, the main battery’s
capacity gradually decreases. A frequently used older battery
will not power the computer for as long as a new battery, even
when both are fully charged.
HINT: Wait at least 16 seconds after turning on the computer
before trying to monitor the remaining battery power. The
computer needs this time to check the battery’s remaining
capacity and perform its calculations. NOTE
