On my Twinhead P1400, the output of /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info is:

rhdt@cmell rhdt $ cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info 
present:                 yes
design capacity:         4000 mWh
last full capacity:      4084 mWh
battery technology:      non-rechargeable
design voltage:          12600 mV
design capacity warning: 250 mWh
design capacity low:     120 mWh
capacity granularity 1:  80 mWh
capacity granularity 2:  32 mWh
model number:            P14N    
serial number:           P14N 0001
battery type:            LiIon   
OEM info:                PS      

Should I be concerned that the battery is listed as non-rechargeable? 
Functionally, everything appears to work, but I'm puzzled as to why the 
battery is listed thus.

cheers,

Rich
