SUMMARY

This is not a functional bug, but I use Neochat on a Plasma Desktop on a Laptop where it displays a tray icon.
When I plug in my power source, the battery icon disappears at some time (when the battery is full) and I regularly mistake the NeoChat icon with (a half full) battery icon.

This does only happen, when just the NeoChat icon is displayed (when both icons are displayed the difference is strong enough).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Start NeoChat on a Computer, where you have a tray and expect a battery icon (while there is none).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I have attached a screenshot, where you can see both icons at once (currently the battery is full, but especially when it is half full, it looks really similar). Note, that I've made my task bar really small, so my tray icons are around 3x4mm.

Well it has the same basic shape, sort of.

I'm not sure I agree with you about the visual similarity, but regardless, the Plasma battery icon is getting skinnier in Plasma 6, which should substantially reduce the similarity in shape.
