Here's the charge curve used by the Tripp-Lite driver:

Generally speaking, measuring the voltage to find charge is a bit
problematic unless you take into account the amount of current flowing
in or out of the battery as well (a real-world battery has non-zero
Thevenin resistance, so it is not a pure voltage source). The best you
can do is plot voltages over time (as reported by the UPS), and try to
fit the curve.
