I only see the percentage, and read somewhere that HP took out the battery time option in the bios. I tied the registry method of adding HKLM>system>currentcontrolsetcontrol>power and adding EnergyEstimationEnabled with a value of 1, rebooted and still nothing.

I believe this meaningless option is removed from Microsoft. But you still can enable it from Registry

OK, I've done this and you have to ask Microsoft, they may totally remove this misleading/meaningless option.
