Once the bar gets down to about 25% for me, it can plunge pretty quickly to red. The graph does not appear scaled to the actual life left.

I've also seen it show 50% availability, but the tablet start acting oddly (screen refusing input for one)... after a reboot, the battery graphic then only has a thin red line.
