I use the following commands to check for battery remaining (mind the
crappy linewrapping):


# 'check_batt' command definition
define command{
        command_name    check_batt
        command_line    $USER1$/check_snmp -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $USER4$ -u
"min" -l "Batt runtime" -o
enterprises.emerson.liebertCorp.liebertUps.luExtensions.luCore.lcUpsBattery.lcUpsBatTimeRemaining.0
-w $ARG1$ -c $ARG2$
        }


ARG1 and ARG2 are simply the minutes remaining.
