Canon Cameras

How come my canon powershot SD 1000 digital elph doesn't display the battery life?

There are no little bars so I don't know how much is left and stuff! Please help!

1. You can 'hack' your camera using CHDK. The term CHDK refers to free software – currently available for many (but not all) Canon PowerShot compact digital cameras – that you can load onto your camera's memory card to give your camera greatly enhanced capabilities. http://chdk.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page
2. it only shows when the battery is low the manual tells you that fact
