Same issue on Galaxy S GT-I9000 on Samsung stock roms XXJVR and XXJVS, both
2.3.4 roms.
Occasionally will charge to 100, but as soon as power plug pulled will drop
down to anywhere between 75-99. Did not exhibit this behaviour before XXJVQ
rom, but I haven't noted which version of BIP it started showing this problem,
so it may or may not be anything to do with BIP.

The battery is ultimately responsible for determining its own charge level.
The battery reports its status to the OS, which then passes the details on to
my app, which then passes them on to you.
You can double-check that the app is correctly reporting the battery details as
known to the system by pressing HOME->MENU->Settings->About Phone->Status.
There is a "Battery level" field that should be the same as what Battery
Indicator shows. In the unlikely event that they are different, you probably
have a Task Killer or something else interfering with the app -- please see the
FAQ in this case. If the numbers are different and you don't have a Task
Killer or similar app, then please open another issue saying that Battery
Indicator is not reporting the same charge level as the system. If the numbers
are the same, then you are just seeing what your battery is reporting, and as
such, there is nothing Battery Indicator can or should do differently.

I have had Battery Indicator and the battery widget by Beautiful Widgets
installed at the same time. Battery Indicator will not show 100% after an
entire night of recharging, but the widget by Beautiful Widgets will show 100%.
There is sometimes variance in the charge level indicated between the two --
Battery Indicator often showing 1 or 2 percentage points lower than the widget
by Beautiful Widgets.

There's a difference between a charge level of 100% and a battery status of
"Fully charged". 100% means full capacity; fully charged means the battery is
at or near full capacity and any more charging could hurt the health of the
battery.
The other app probably shows 100 when the status is fully charged, but I'd
rather show you all of the information as presented by the battery. I don't
like the idea of hiding things from the user. If the battery is saying it's at
98% and fully charged, then that is exactly what I want to present to you. If
you want to know when it becomes fully charged, you can set up an alarm for
this (if you have the Pro version).
