How can I reliably get battery status on pinebook
#5
I run a Debian-based distro also, and 'acpi' and 'acpi -V' would mot work until I installed  it with

'apt-get install acpi'.   [You may have to use 'sudo apt-get install acpi']

'acpi -V' (note the space) is the "verbose" version, which also gives you the current health of your battery, i.e., percentage capacity now vs. original design (new) capacity. Great command-line utility to have.
