Battery icon in gnome panel keeps appearing and disappearing every 20-30
sec.

The battery icon has the lightning rod as if charging and if I click on
it it says "Laptop Battery 100%".

This is especially annoying because the battery icon is the right most
in the gnome shell top bar and all the icons keep shifting to the left
every 20-30 seconds. Sometimes I try to click on the volume icon but
because of the shift I click on the network manager.

Also, I'm afraid that if a real charging and discharging of the battery
is triggered every 30 seconds this laptop battery won't last very long.

Thank you,

Paolo.
