Battery light status (amber)

[vutown]

Guys,

Any idea why when I charge my T42 battery, when it gets to a certain level (I'm not sure which level), the battery status turns from amber to green, but yet on the bottom right hand corner, the battery is still charging?


i'm puzzled. Then it seems like it takes forever to charge the last 5% to 100%.

Any clues?

Orange means the battery power is very low and that its charging. When it switches to green you should see that its a flashing green. Meaning that it is still charging but has enough juice to unplug. Thats why you see that it is still charging. Solid green means its fully charged.
