It was set to "none" action in both tabs. However, the session was still
closed. But changed this, was enabling all of the "ACPI Config" options once
(pressing "OK") and then it still should the message: Battery is running out!
But the session was not finished any more :)
Afterwards I could disable the ACPI options again, and it was still working.
Strange.
Altogether, It seems to be caused by miscalculating the remaining time.

Re: KLaptop finishes session with "Battery is running out!" when unplugged
I have the same problem, but even with a plugged laptop until it refreshes the few the first time. Annoying thing is, that it shut my laptop down on very boot when I had automatic shutdown switched on (lol). More strange is, that the percantage shown IS correct - only the time left isn' t. So I think there is a bug in the function where the time left is calculated (signum error perhaps, -1 = 0 ?). I mailed the author if it would be possible to enter a time and/or a percantage for warnings in later versions, but he only responded: "No." Sry. I someone has more luck to get it working, pls mail me. Nevertheless it's a great tool.
