that indicator is pretty finicky. it doesn’t work when uconsole is powered off _(probably because it works programmatically)_, and seems like OS updates can break it also: [Bookworm 6.12.y for the uConsole and DevTerm - #474 by Rex](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/bookworm-6-12-y-for-the-uconsole-and-devterm/15847/474)

I suppose it works this way because ‘charging board’ is a separate module, but it should charge batteries even if indicator doesn’t show it.
