Your battery maybe out of sync with your laptop. Try the following to see if you can get back in sync
Remove both the battery and power adapter from the laptop. Hold the power button down on the laptop for 45 ton 60 seconds to drain residual power in the system Put the battery back in and run the laptop until it does a low power shutdown, try to delay that as long as possible. Put the power adapter plug back in and keep the computer on (don't let it sleep or hibernate as well.) You can use the inhibite sleep applet in MATE or Caffeine in other Desktops to facilitate that. Let the battery charge to full power and then restart to get the battery and systems firmware in sync.
