SOLVED ?bettery not charging, acpi showing weird charging time, laptop

hi

today i fell asleep while my laptop was on and wasnt charging
and i have no clue what happened to it, but basically i booted it,
it booted extremely slowly

then i thought maybe its an ssd issue, but no, i ran `smartctl -a /dev/nvme0` and it seems to b fine
( SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: PASSED )

all stats look fine too, although 21 unsafe shutdowns, but anyway

then i thought 'well the bat isnt charging, maybe the issue is the bat' and well, i was right

running `acpi -V` gives concerning results, the 'until charged' time is very long and unstable :

```
Battery 0: Charging, 10%, 216:47:08 until charged
Battery 0: Charging, 10%, 75:57:00 until charged
Battery 0: Charging, 10%, 58:40:23 until charged
Battery 0: Charging, 10%, 84:21:40 until charged
Battery 0: Charging, 10%, 217:21:25 until charged
...
```

what couldve happened, im very confused
