No, see above.

This only works if a UPS reports the battery charge itself. The values  
drivers can calculate are not accurate enough to base a decision on.  
There is no way to keep track of the battery charge- and discharge  
current that would be needed to accurately calculate the charge  
remaining. We also have no idea what is happening to a battery when a  
driver is not running.
