Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I use a dock/KMV which supports multiple laptops with Power Delivery, and the currently active ones gets more power. AlDente helps make sure my battery doesn't sit at 100% when in use, but i'm using my other device while running some power hungry tasks, the battery can slowly drain to the point where the laptop hibernates and I can't use it for 20 min until it charges back enough.

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to be able to set a threshold in Al Dente where low power mode kicks on/off automatically, say <20% battery to prevent this from happening.

Describe alternatives you've considered

  • Plugging in a separate power cable directly into the Mac (not ideal - extra cables)
  • Enabling low power mode all the time (not ideal - makes using my mac less responsive).

Additional context
Apple Shortcuts does not support automations yet, so I haven't been able to find any other method of automating this. Since AlDente tracks battery usage & already has a low power mode toggle, this seems like a no brainer!
