  • Energy when full - 231.7 Wh

  • Energy(design) - 81.2 Wh

This also results in an incorrect value for Percentage - 31.3%

This also conflicts with Time to full field (Thankfully !)

enter image description here

I have never seen this difference before. Why is this happening ?

Can this damage the battery or my laptop in any way ?

My laptop is Asus U32U - RX012D.


UPDATE :

Posting as an answer as it needs some more explanation besides "close it - it's a bug!".

Why is this happening ?

This is a bug. Could be in the GUI, upower frontend or in the kernel. I can't tell really, but, go here:

No, Ubuntu does not control the power controller and in most cases it can't do anything with it besides reading states (exception here are Thinkpads with the fancy thinkpad-smapi module).
