That shouldn't be problematic, because the charging status should be
initially set to unknown and change to charging/discharging [1] once
the device sends the first report.
Your desktop environment shouldn't display the battery percentage
while the status is unknown, so the initial values are ignored.
Here is my output of my XP-Pen Deco SW before receiving the battery
percentage:
POWER_SUPPLY_NAME=hid-28bd-933-battery
POWER_SUPPLY_TYPE=Battery
POWER_SUPPLY_PRESENT=1
POWER_SUPPLY_ONLINE=1
POWER_SUPPLY_MODEL_NAME=UGTABLET Deco Pro SW
POWER_SUPPLY_SCOPE=Device
And after:
POWER_SUPPLY_NAME=hid-28bd-933-battery
POWER_SUPPLY_TYPE=Battery
POWER_SUPPLY_PRESENT=1
POWER_SUPPLY_ONLINE=1
POWER_SUPPLY_CAPACITY=99
POWER_SUPPLY_MODEL_NAME=UGTABLET Deco Pro SW
POWER_SUPPLY_STATUS=Discharging
POWER_SUPPLY_SCOPE=Device

[1] Actually it should be set to discharging until this gets merged:
