Created attachment 176287 [details] Multiple notifications of 5% battery piled up during unstable electricity. The notifications for low battery don't disappear once the notebook has more battery percentage than the notification is informing. As a side-effect, they can pile up unnecessarily.
Correction: It's 10%, not 5%. I didn't realize that the percentage decreases.
Thanks for the bug report. I'm not able to reproduce this on git-master. It looks like this has been fixed. I ran the battery down on my laptop. It notified me at 10%, and the notification changed to 9% when the battery got down to that When I plugged it into AC power, the notification was automatically dismissed. This fix should reach your system when Plasma is updated to 6.3.0. Feel free to re-open this report if you still see the same problem at that point.

Well darn. Can you get us some information about your battery power when the notification is misbehaving? Get the laptop battery power with acpi: $ acpi -b Get the list of devices upower has with this $ upower -e Get information about the device in question, for example the laptop battery: upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0 Thanks!

For acpi, it looks like you need to install that first. In the upower output, I see the battery is currently fully charged. So, you're saying the notification is still being popped up when the battery is fully charged?

So, > you're saying the notification is still being popped up when the battery is > fully charged? I assume that these are my current status. There's no battery history? That way I can sent the status of the moment that screenshot has in its name. - [tuti@archlinux ~]$ acpi -b Battery 0: Full, 100%
What I need to confirm is the battery state while the multiple battery notifications are happening.

Are you still able to reproduce the original problem reported in the first comment? e.g. Multiple notifications of low battery that don't disappear after the battery is above that percentage?

Thanks for clarifying. Let's close this out for now. If the problem re-appears, feel free to reopen it.
