`mode-line-format` automatically becomes buffer-local when set, so using `setq`
won't set the global value. Try `setq-default`.
The battery info is contained in `mode-line-misc-info`, you can move it around
if the above setting doesn't work for you. Note, though, that
`mode-line-misc-info` may contain more information than just the battery status,
which will get moved around as well. Moving just the battery display would be a
bit more involved.
