Is it
upower -d (not b?)
And what am I looking for in the output?
Thanks for the modle tips. It’s hard to know what is “value” when in a another country and converting the currency etc.

no, it’s -b, for “battery”. you’re looking for capacity (or energy-full and energy-full-design, on which this is based off) which should tell you how much of the original capacity is available, anything north of 90% is awesome, 80+% is usable, anything below 70% only if it’s super-cheap, as a stop-gap.
