I think the problem is that gnome-power-manager takes the value from the
battery. For example LiOn batteries tend to report lower times if they
were stressed by higher energy consumption for a short time. I think we
will get more accurate values if gnome-power-manager calculates the
remaining time from the remaining energy and the current consumption (or
weighted average of consumption values for 5, 10, 15 minutes while
lastest value has the highest weight).
