It does tell you. Look in the extras drawer, the battery indicator changes when it is charging vs fully charged. It isn't animated/changing as you watch but it does change. Says charging vs charged if I remember right. Been a bit since I fired up my 120/130. It also shows a full bar at that point. There are several packages that will give you more info on this as well. Sleep aid was one that I used with several sleep and battery options. Nicks batt test gives a lot of battery info but I don't remember if it only works on 2x00 or also on 1x0.
