"Show Percentage" on desktop PC shows 0%

As you can see in the screenshot, the widget shows "0%" when the "Show Percentage" option is selected:

I think it does not looks well. Probably PCs withotu a battery should not have the "Show Percentage" option at all.

I have 3 Bluetooth devices connected at the same time, I am not sure if they are the reason for this bug? I cannot really disconnect them, because then I will lose my mouse and keyboard :) (the 3rd device - AirPods - are not showing up in the battery widget unfortunately)

Sure, here's the result of upower -d (same as I posted in #174)

@danrabbit The PR that you linked does not fix this problem. As I see, it just moves the switch to the top, whereas in the case of computers without battery there shouldn't even be an option to show battery percentage, unless there is some smart way of how to use it in a case like mine. Maybe showing the battery level of the device that has the lowest battery would be an improvement? That would at least be some valid information.
