A warning state occurs when the capacity falls below 10%, and a critical state occurs when it falls below 5%. This alert indicates that the system may run out of power and shut down soon. + +### Troubleshoot the alert + +1. **Restore power**: Connect the system to a power source to recharge the battery and prevent an unexpected shutdown. + +2. **Check battery health**: Inspect the health of the system's battery. If the capacity is consistently low or degrading, consider replacing the battery. + +3. **Consider a UPS**: If your system experiences frequent power interruptions, you may want to integrate an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to provide temporary power and prevent system shutdowns. + +4. **Monitor power supply metrics**: Keep an eye on power supply metrics, such as remaining capacity and charge/discharge rate, to ensure the system is functioning optimally. + +### Useful resources + +1.
