Re: I don't have a battery indicator in Win 8 Dev preview 1... is that normal?

julienvarela  and planninggcig,

I do not think you have the correct understanding.

The Power/battery status might be passed to VM with the steps below.

1. Go to VM > Settings > Advanced

2.  checked "Pass power status to VM"

3.  relaunch your VM which will be shown on the right-bottom of taskbar.
