Nearly :) Ideally it would be imho:

device = bus.get_object('org.freedesktop.UPower', device_path)
device_prop_iface = dbus.Interface(device, dbus.PROPERTIES_IFACE)
device_type = device_prop_iface.Get(_UP_DEVICE_IFACE, 'Type')
if device_type == _UP_TYPE_BATTERY:
     tray.add_device(DeviceView(device))
