@reid-cooper how can i find the battery package name?

I don't know, perhaps knowing what hardware you are using would give us a lead?

If nothing else, get off of 7.3 and move to 7.4. You can check the battery from the cli by typing acpi. If that works, it's probably whatever KDE is using for measuring the battery doesn't work with your system.

You'll have to install it.
yum install acpi

The package has one more letter in the name. Should be this...

yum install acpid

Then you can fire it up like this...

systemctl start acpid
systemctl enable acpid

It's systemctl not sysctl. Two different things.
