Has this bug regressed since 2011? My battery indicator shows a red- with-a-little-left icon, when I have 1h10min of battery left (so definitely over 30min). The percentage is at 22%. (on ubuntu 14.10)

We need to confirm this in Ayatana-Design, but my hunch is the following would be more useful: external power: normal text colour (ivory/chocolate for Ambiance/Radiance) >=1:00 remaining: normal text colour < 1:00 remaining: orange non-critical warning <=0:10 remaining: red critical warning <=0:02 remaining: red critical warning if suspend/hibernate action selected and proven working <=0:02 remaining: red critical (flashing) warning if simply going to power-off Additionally, the Ubuntu Mono 0.0.26 change uses a battery icon with no fill for empty. This is not as clear to the user as an icon that instead uses a very small fill at end of the battery, even for zero. This is more intuitive as it makes it clear that the icon is used as a percentage indicator; with an empty fill the user must already know this for "empty" to be useful as a relative indicator. At the moment, the "Red with some left" state seen at 1:10 remaining is far more visible to the user than the (more serious) completely empty icon.
