Bug ID: 497345
Summary: Plasma widget erroneously shows charge thresholds for
all power supply batteries
Classification: Plasma
Product: Powerdevil
Version: 6.2.4
Platform: Other

Severity: normal

Power widget showing the issue
SUMMARY
1) I own a (Dell) laptop, which has a built-in battery. I have charge start/end
thresholds configured to maintain the battery's health. This is reported
correctly by the battery applet (neat!).
2) I also own an APC UPS to which my equipment is plugged in when I sit at my
desk. I have the UPS connected to the laptop with a USB cable. Linux detects it
as a USB HID device, and then (I believe) UPower and Powerdevil pick it up and
correctly report its battery levels (also neat). To my knowledge the UPS does
not support charge start/end thresholds. The UPS is not listed under
/sys/class/power_supply, but `upower --dump` lists it, and does not mention any
thresholds.
The bug lies in the fact that the message "Battery is configured to charge up
to approximately 85%" is displayed beneath both the laptop battery (correct)
and the UPS battery (wrong). The message is not displayed under any other
devices like mice, headphones etc. (also correct).
