Windows 7-10 users can add the Reserve Battery Level option which allows you to decide what percentage of battery needs to be reached before you're notified.

We can enable this option with PowerCfg or by editing the registry. PowerCfg is much easier. When completed, you will have a new option that's called Reserve battery level and two options; on battery and plugged in. You can change the percentage to anything you like.

1: PowerCfg

Open PowerShell as Admin.

Enable - powercfg -attributes f3c5027d-cd16-4930-aa6b-90db844a8f00 -ATTRIB_HIDE
Disable - powercfg -attributes f3c5027d-cd16-4930-aa6b-90db844a8f00 +ATTRIB_HIDE

Open your Advanced Power Options and make the changes to the percentage to suit your needs.

2: Registry

Open the Registry Editor.

Copy and paste HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\PowerSettings\f3c5027d-cd16-4930-aa6b-90db844a8f00 in the search bar.

Double-click Attributes in the right pane and change the Value Data from 1 to 0. If you change your mind later, change the Value Data back to 1.

Open your Advanced Power Options and make the changes to the percentage to suit your needs.
