Sorry, I meant to explain about the power status getting displayed in various 
misleading ways:
What happens is, if the Bluetooth-connected Apple trackpad happens to become 
disconnected
for whatever reason (happens occasionally, I still haven't figured out how to 
prevent it), the
power meter shows in the panel red and at 0% but that's misleading because it 
really has no
information on the battery state in the Bluetooth Apple Trackpad, since that 
device is no
longer connected. 

Then sometimes, even when the Bluetooth Apple Trackpad _is_ connected, the 
charge icon
in the panel changes to the shape of a mouse and shows me instead the charge 
state of the
Logitech MX USB mouse. I'd prefer to have some way to configure the panel so as 
to either
be able to display the charge state of all three batteries simultaneously 
(preferably) or if
that's not possible, to at least be able to choose which device's charge state 
to _always_ display. 

Having the panel pick one (apparently on a whim) seems confusing and
sometimes startling.

Clicking on the icon does indeed show a menu where the status of the trackpad 
and UPS batteries
gets displayed as horizontal bars, and the mouse gets displayed as a 
partially-red-filled mouse
icon, so the information is indeed available. But some consistent 
representation of the charge 
state would be nicer, and without having to click to see it in this power menu.
