Hello, I had the same problem (Ubuntu 12.04 Precise), I upgraded lxpanel to version 0.5.10-1 (quantal) and it seems to work correctly now (showing "41% charged, 1:22 until full" instead of "100%", and the green bar is not full now). I didn't test during discharging yet. See http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=636868
