I had good luck with ACPIBatteryManager reporting the battery status back in Mavericks luckily without any DSDT patches. Unfortunately, when I did a fresh install of Yosemite using Clover this time, it doesn't appear to be working. This is with "RehabMan-Battery-2014-1016".

Here is what I'm seeing after loading the debug kext:

Hey RehabMan. If there are no issues, then why does my battery still show 0% and when I try to add it to the menu bar, it seems to kill the SystemUI server according to the system.log.

I mean, of course, no issues with my three laptops.

It is probably some sort of DSDT issue.
 
Ahh... ok... I understand you now. I had a stab at following the Battery DSDT patching guide and was able to patch my DSDT. I only had 2 variables that I could tell I had to break up: ERIB (16 bits), which I split up into RIB0 and RIB1, and SMD0 (256 bits), which I turned into SMDX.

This is what my patch ended up looking like:

Your DSDT also uses some Mutex objects with non-zero SyncLevel. Apply: "Fix Mutex with non-zero SyncLevel" from my laptop patch repo.

FYI: The message "Menu Extra: <BatteryExtra: ...> is over retained." appears on my Apple MacBookAir6,2 as well.

FYI2: The patch already in the repo "Dell Vostro 15xx" is marked as match for your laptop... look in the comments (it is probably a superset of the patch you just posted).

You can easily see that the _BST is returning invalid data for CurrentRate.

But there is a bug here in the battery manager as it then converts that invalid value from watts to amps (I'll write a fix for that). But the root cause is the DSDT code for _BST not returning a value.

You can code review it... or debug it with ACPIDebug.kext.

Interesting... I don't usually see the fCurrentRate being so high like that causing the adjusted rate to be negative. Here's some more samples that show a more normal CurrentRate.

I don't mind going through some debugging to figure out what's going on, but what's my best bet for where to start? I can see the _BST method here in the DSDT:

Code: 
            Method (_BST, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                If (ECOK ())
                {
                    Store (^^EC0.BST0, Index (BFB0, Zero))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (LEqual (B1B2 (^^EC0.AC00, ^^EC0.AC01), Zero))
                    {
                        Store (0xFFFFFFFF, Index (BFB0, One))
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.AC00, ^^EC0.AC01), Local4)
                        And (Local4, 0x8000, Local5)
                        If (LEqual (Local5, 0x8000))
                        {
                            Subtract (0xFFFF, Local4, Local4)
                        }


                        If (LEqual (^^EC0.BAM0, Zero))
                        {
                            Divide (Multiply (Local4, B1B2 (^^EC0.PV00, ^^EC0.PV01), Local4), 0x03E8, , Local4)
                        }


                        Store (Local4, Index (BFB0, One))
                    }


                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (^^EC0.BAM0)
                    {
                        Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.RC00, ^^EC0.RC01), Local5)
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Store (Multiply (B1B2 (^^EC0.RC00, ^^EC0.RC01), 0x0A), Local5)
                    }


                    Store (Local5, Index (BFB0, 0x02))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.PV00, ^^EC0.PV01), Index (BFB0, 0x03))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (LNotEqual (^^EC0.BDN0, BMDL))
                    {
                        Notify (BAT1, 0x81)
                    }
                }


                Return (BFB0)
            }

And I see that the Vostro patches made some modifications in splitting up the 16 bit variables into two 8 bits. Maybe something could be askew there?

Interesting... I don't usually see the fCurrentRate being so high like that causing the adjusted rate to be negative. Here's some more samples that show a more normal CurrentRate.

I don't mind going through some debugging to figure out what's going on, but what's my best bet for where to start? I can see the _BST method here in the DSDT:

Code: 
            Method (_BST, 0, NotSerialized)
            {
                If (ECOK ())
                {
                    Store (^^EC0.BST0, Index (BFB0, Zero))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (LEqual (B1B2 (^^EC0.AC00, ^^EC0.AC01), Zero))
                    {
                        Store (0xFFFFFFFF, Index (BFB0, One))
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.AC00, ^^EC0.AC01), Local4)
                        And (Local4, 0x8000, Local5)
                        If (LEqual (Local5, 0x8000))
                        {
                            Subtract (0xFFFF, Local4, Local4)
                        }


                        If (LEqual (^^EC0.BAM0, Zero))
                        {
                            Divide (Multiply (Local4, B1B2 (^^EC0.PV00, ^^EC0.PV01), Local4), 0x03E8, , Local4)
                        }


                        Store (Local4, Index (BFB0, One))
                    }


                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (^^EC0.BAM0)
                    {
                        Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.RC00, ^^EC0.RC01), Local5)
                    }
                    Else
                    {
                        Store (Multiply (B1B2 (^^EC0.RC00, ^^EC0.RC01), 0x0A), Local5)
                    }


                    Store (Local5, Index (BFB0, 0x02))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    Store (B1B2 (^^EC0.PV00, ^^EC0.PV01), Index (BFB0, 0x03))
                    Sleep (0x14)
                    If (LNotEqual (^^EC0.BDN0, BMDL))
                    {
                        Notify (BAT1, 0x81)
                    }
                }


                Return (BFB0)
            }

And I see that the Vostro patches made some modifications in splitting up the 16 bit variables into two 8 bits. Maybe something could be askew there?
Click to expand...

You can see the case where it returns -1 for CurrentStatus:

Code: 
              If (LEqual (B1B2 (^^EC0.AC00, ^^EC0.AC01), Zero))
                    {
                        Store (0xFFFFFFFF, Index (BFB0, One))
                    }

The splitting really should not matter, but no need to split them if they are not in EC.
