This indicator correctly knows that there are two batteries - clicking on it to get the menu shows both batteries and their (separate) statuses. However the icon/text display only shows the first battery. This system drains the second battery completely first. The text display will just say "100%" until the second is drained at which point it starts counting down. Similarly it only shows charge remaining time for the first battery. (The drop down does show correct information.) The calculations should be summed over all batteries in the system. For example the time remaining depends on the sum of all battery remaining charges divided by the sum of all battery discharge rates and something similar being applicable for charge time.
