    I thought the battery indicator worked. I know it may not have been accurate, but I thought it worked. If it does not, then you are probably out of luck, since any utility you use will be asking Windows for the info. Also, keep an eye out for new Boot Camp versions. With each version things like this are fixed.

    It eventually did work, I just didn't see it at first.
