My apologies in advance as I believe the answer has already been posted in this forum, but a search brought up not hits. Question: How do you display remaining battery life in Hours and Minutes Instead of %. Cheers.

I did not even know you could do that but I managed to figure it out.

Left click on the battery icon
Select Show
Choose the option "Remaining time when on battery"

I did that, so it would show the "Remaining Time Left on Battery," and rebooted, but the battery meter still shows the % left? Thoughts?

Oops. Once I pulled the A/C power cord, the battery meter showed the remaining battery time in hours and minutes. Duh.
