In i3 status bar the battery status is being empty.

I know this issue is mad old, but for me it was just a matter of switching from "battery 1" to "battery 0"

The integer makes the config look at a different filepath for the battery events https://github.com/addy-dclxvi/i3-starterpack/blob/master/.config/i3status/config#L64

So look in your /sys/class/power_supply/ directory and see if BAT0 is there
