Created attachment 166365 [details] upower cmd results about time remaining SUMMARY Battery remaining time is stuck on "estimating" *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Always 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Battery time is written to be currently "estimating" EXPECTED RESULT Show upower estimation, which right now for me gives my battery life of 2.9h SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: CachyOS x86_64 (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.115.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Laptop is a Nitro AN515-54. From what I looked up, it seems that the issue may be that my battery is recognised as "BAT1" and not "BAT0" (see screenshot)

I'd recommend upgrading to Plasma 6. A lot of code surrounding this was changed, making is quite possible that the issue has already been resolved.

Upgraded! And it's still happening sadly, I have no idea what happens because the battery percentage displayed is accurate, though the estimation upower's give isn't displayed properly for some reason.

It seems the command `acpi -id` also gives accurate information, with an estimated remaining time, meanwhile, the tray's menu is giving me the usual "Estimating..."
I am not currently able to reproduce this on 6.1.4 where the battery is BAT0 git-master where the battery is BAT1 On both systems, the battery widget shows the remaining time when discharging, time to full charge, or Fully Charged
Are you able to reproduce this issue in Plasma 6.3 or later, and also presumably with newer kernel and upower versions too?

I can confirm this bug. The widget is stuck on "estimating..." until I restart Plasma. Kernel version: 6.14.1 KDE Plasma version: 6.3.5 KDE Frameworks version: 6.14.0 Qt version: 6.9.0
