For simplicity I just use xosd. This is my setting in ~/.fluxbox/keys 
which can be adapted to meet your needs:
Mod4 b                  :Exec /usr/bin/acpi | cut -d ":" -f 2 | cut -d 
"," -f 1,2 | osd_cat --align=right --pos=bottom --offset=-110 
--indent=130 --colour=yellow --delay=3 -f "-*-dejavu 
sans-medium-r-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*"
