This is exactly the problem I've been having as well. I put power in for 2 days, and less than 24 hours later I get back and it's still running, but displaying 0 power. Then when I add power it says I added the amount that I intended, but the power reserves are far lower. I usually have to add about 50% more power than I should by the calculations from power use as displayed on the status screen. I'd love it if this was just a display error, and there is really a gigantic pile of power in all my harvesters that I just don't know is there, but I'm not holding my breath... My power reserves are holding out for now, but in the long run, if this isn't fixed, I'll be shutting down my medical factory and harvesters and vacationing on another server until this one gets corrected.
And that isn't even considering the whole maintanance costs going up every time I redeed my old, not very efficient heavy harvesters (they're all like 7, certainly not spectacular.)

Well I can verify it as well. I know I keep all my harvesters supplied with 2 days worth of power and mantanance. When I checked them today a majorty of them displayed 0 but where still running. When I dumped more power in it say 3000 or more it then displayed less then I actualy put in as if it was running of a neg balance. I hadn't tryed turning them off and restarting to see if this fixes the problem, but will try it.
