+<para>These two modules work together to control what happens when a
+predetermined low battery condition occurs. There are two of them, so you can
+set a warning for when time is getting close, and something more desperate for
+the last minute save or suspend.</para>

+<para>This field specifies at which point the battery low state is detected - it
+is the number of minutes left (according to APM) in your batteries. When this
+number is crossed the low state is triggered and one or more of the following
+things will occur</para>
