Apparently the problem is caused because xfce4-power-manager migrated to upower, which has only empty, caution, low, good, and full icon themes. That's 3 states + a caution + empty. IMO that's too few.
And yes, the icon themes are misleading. In /usr/share/icons/elementary-xfce/status/symbolic, battery-good-symbolic takes over at 30-59%, however the icon displayed looks more like 70% full or so.

GNOME icons are consistent with this scheme (it shows 3 bars).
