Battery Power Light Indicator??

In reading through a few Kobo Glo threads, it looks like the Glo power light indicator comes on while the Kobo is charging.

For those of us with the Aura HD - does your power light indicator come on during charging? Mine does not; the only time I've noticed it light up is during power on or reset, but definitely NOT during charging (via computer or wall plug).

I have a Glo, but its power light does not turn on while charging...

The original Kobo and Kobo WiFi ereaders used a colour changing LED to indicate charge status. AFAIK, none of the later Kobo ereaders (Touch, Glo, Mini, Aura) have any such indication. The battery symbol on the screen does show a plugged in indication but no LEDs that I'm aware of.

Off topic trivia Sony T1 has LED under micro sd card cover that blinks like old disc drive indicator light. I find it comforting knowing something is happening. Less so with Kobo wifi color change light or spinning indicator on screen.

Neither my Kobo Touch or Glo turn the LED on or blink it during charging, but it'd be DARNED nice if they did! HINT HINT...
