Yes, I do have written a script on my own. It's executed with cron, the crontab
looks like this:

* * * * * python3 /home/user/bin/akkuleer.py

The akkuleer.py (batter empty) is attached. It basically requires python3, aplay
and a file ~/.sounds/battery_low.wav.

Additional plus for this script is, that it can cope both with laptops with one
or two batteries (the newer Thinkpad have two).
