Feature Request: Shutdown on battery

Hi There,

I'm currently trialling Shutter to shutdown a PC with a NUC-UPS attached. While the shutter works really great, the issue I have is that the configuration only allows me to set the low battery setting to 99% max. This means that the PC will not shutdown for approx 3 mins after going to battery power as the batteries in the UPS take this long to discharge to 98%. What I'd like is to be able to do is to be able to shutdown immediately when running on batteries. I get that 3 mins isn't long however it's too long for my application (safety issue).

Is it possible to adjust the low battery max setting to either 101%, =<100% or add an additional on battery trigger?

Thanks!

It should be an easy change. Stay tuned for updates.

This would be a nice improvement to the Battery event.

Re: Feature Request: Shutdown on battery

The Battery event (formerly "Battery Low") has been revamped in Shutter 4.2.0.7 Beta.

New trigger conditions were added to the Battery event:

  • Power supply state (Online vs Offline);

  • Battery level above a specific level;

  • Monitor either the battery level or the power supply state, or both.
