During random times, battery level will drop between 3% and 10% even after a full charge. The physical battery indicator on the MacBook Pro shows the correct level at all times. This happens with KDE 4.10.1 with KDE's battery monitor. I am filing this under core system because I do not know whether it's KDE or the kernel's fault. Current way of getting around this is closing the laptop lid (putting the OS to sleep) plug it (to avoid hibernation) in then reopen the laptop. After this, the battery indicator shows the right value for the battery and I can then unplug it. MacBook Pro 13 inch late 2011 model, 8,1. Core i5 dual core with H/T.
