Using gnome-control-center-3.10.3, I get:

Desktop top panel battery icon -> click -> time remaining 1:29 - 50%

Gnome-control-center -> power -> time remaining 1:29 - 79%

Why 50% battery life remaining in one and 79% battery life remaining in the
other?

Because the way that the time remaining is calculated is different in each of
those applications. This is all fixed in GNOME 3.12 with UPower 0.99.x.

Thanks for the update - rather than recompiling a bunch of applications, is there patch to fix this for 
gnome-3.10.x?

No. UPower does that now, and it requires a new UPower (obviously) and
new gnome-control-center, gnome-shell and gnome-settings-daemon.
