Pretty much finalized low and critical battery notifications:

from the todo
- [DONE] write a check to see if any other battery device peripherals(PDA, phone, wireless mouse/kb, UPS) exist on the system, if they do the title should remain "Laptop battery low"

- [WON'T DO] we might need to make the message "25 minutes remaining (10%)" since the % is more accurate than the time -- if the battery is low/critically low, all that matters is the amount of time left, not the % left - so we don't need to tell users %. Same with "shut down in X minutes, you have Y minutes remaining" They don't need to know how much battery is left (Y) is their computer will be turned off in X minutes.
