I figured I'd just get it from the command line somehow. And that's what I found using the upower command.
O_o (1) [J:0/1113] mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:acpi $ upower -h
Usage:
upower [OPTION...] UPower tool
Help Options:
-h, --help Show help options
Application Options:
-e, --enumerate Enumerate objects paths for devices
-d, --dump Dump all parameters for all objects
-w, --wakeups Get the wakeup data
-m, --monitor Monitor activity from the power daemon
--monitor-detail Monitor with detail
-i, --show-info Show information about object path
-v, --version Print version of client and daemon
The first thing to do is to enumerate the list of power devices available using the -e or --enumerate command line option:
^_^ [J:0/1115] mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:acpi $ upower --enumerate
/org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/line_power_AC
/org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0
Here we can see two devices relating to power: battery_BAT0 and line_power_AC. And I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that battery_BAT0 is the one we want to interrogate.
So now we ask it for information using the -i or --show-info command line option:
^_^ [J:0/1116] mcpierce@mcpierce-laptop:acpi $ upower --show-info /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/battery_BAT0
native-path: BAT0

As we can see in the output the serial number for the laptop batter is listed, along with the vendor tag and model number.
