I've been digging further. It appears my issue may not be with upower. First, my acpi data is consistent with upower --dump. Percentages match, etc.
Second, I have found notes from other users (even those using winblows) about battery information being incorrect with my BIOS. Therefore, I believe my problem is with HP, not with upower. I recently updated to the latest (allegedly greatest) BIOS firmware version F.38, and my problems got worse. I assume that is the issue. Sorry to put the blame where it didn't belong. Also on a side note, I was able to create a udev rule to force the battery type to Li-ion, and that did not solve the problem, so it appears the BIOS is the root cause. Next time, I'm buying a computer with Ubuntu out of the box. I've had it with shoehorning a decent OS into a crappy box.
