💡 What is This?

Battery Monitor is a lightweight desktop application built with Python and Tkinter that watches your battery percentage and alerts you when it’s:

• 🔌 Fully charged (time to unplug)
• 🔋 Too low (time to plug in)

This helps protect your battery health and saves you from accidental overcharging or deep discharging.
