I have installed prime-indicator-plus for my Optimus laptop.
Unfortunately, the icon displayed is too large for the panel.
How do I resize the icon?

As I installed prime-indicator-plus for my Optimus Laptop, and searched for answers, no luck with the proper solution for my problem. I decided to make a quick-fix explanation of resolving this problem without breaking stuff for my Ubuntu 16.04 on XFCE environment.(same was in Gnome-shell for this distro).
If you have too big/large icons after installing power-indicator-plus like I did.
Just follow the instructions below to fix this icon-size bug in a minute.
Locate the icons folder for power-indicator-plus or powerindicator(can be different from distro to distro or environments you use).
Take a good look at the image format *.svg , *.png etc. and add it to the code example as shown below.
Use admin sudo privileges in order to change/convert icon file for the given location according to your environment.
For example, my location of the icons and indicator is /usr/lib/prime-indicator/icons/
4.
sudo convert /usr/lib/prime-indicator/icons/prime-indicator-intel.svg -resize 24x24 /usr/lib/prime-indicator/icons/prime-indicator-intel.svg
- there are 4 icons in the folder so repeat this step for the rest of them(3 icons), just change the file names/format at the source/destination so code from above becomes
sudo convert /usr/lib/prime-indicator/icons/prime-indicator-intel-symbolic.svg -resize 24x24 /usr/lib/prime-indicator/icons/prime-indicator-intel-symbolic.svg
