My Battery Indicator is Stuck at... 10 hours?!

[bli625]

I got home today and booted up my computer and found that the battery indicator says 10 hours. It's stuck on 10 hours. I've had my computer on for 15 min now. I tried resetting SMC, PRAM, and also repairing permissions. I'm on the phone with Apple Support right now and they told me to do the same things I've already done. Anyone know what the problem could be?

Sounds like a feature! Unless of course your battery does actually run out...

Sorry I am of no help, you could always try pulling the battery out.

Haha! I wish the battery could last 10 hours...

Anyways, the issue just magically corrected itself in the middle of my Apple Support call. Weird... I'll see if it happens again.

have you tried to recalibrate it?

Everything seems to be back to normal now, but I will try a recalibration.

Yeah make sure it's fully charged then just let it run down.
