APM 2.5 setting up power module to measure current and consumption.Not sure 
what exactly to enter in boxes and with prompts when I select MP alert on low 
battery.Im using 2200 mah battery.I assume I place 2200 in the battery capacity 
box?Correct?The next 3 prompts have me confused.What voltage do you want to 
warn  at?I figured 10.8 volts is a safe margin for a 3S battery.Do you think I 
should be lowering this value?The last question is the one that has me 
confused.What percentage do you want warning at?If Ive selected 10.8 already in 
my example per say isn't that what its going to use when warning me?What should 
I enter in the percentage box?80% of battery remaining.Im not sure what the 20% 
refers exactly to is my question.
