NOTE: The battery charge light is the right light on the front edge
of the computer. It turns on (solid) when a battery pack (in the
battery bay, DualBay, or MultiBay) is charging. It turns off when
fully charged. It blinks in a low-battery condition.
When the battery charge light turns off, the battery packs are fully
charged.
