Similar issue here, although I think the cause is different.

See attached screenshot.

1) The menu shows estimating... even though the battery is present and charged.
Furthermore, none of the other devices have useful information.

2) Note that the menu icon is for a mouse, not a battery.
If I unplug power, the indicator icon momentarily shows a full battery.
When I plug in again, it switches to a mouse icon.

3) I use 3 mice and 2 keyboards with this laptop. These are Logitech
"unified" devices. I think what we're seeing is that upower reports all
mice and keyboards registered with the unified receiver, even if not
present.

Title:
  battery status indicator shows 'estimating'

Status in The Power Indicator:
  New
Status in “indicator-power” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Sometime in saucy my battery icon started showing '(estimating...)'
  for the 'time' in the menu bar.

  This could be because I:
  a.) am plugged into power
  b.) have used the thinkpad 'tp-smapi-dkms' packages to control my battery, telling it to not charge even though its plugged in

  I'm not sure.
