Is there any way to remotely get a low battery notification for my Steam Deck? I don't use it every day, and batteries don't like to sit on a charger continuously, so it might sit idle for a couple days, (relatively) slowly losing charge.

I have the Steam App on my phone, and Valve has my email address. It would be great if the Steam Deck could send out an SOS before it dies.

Why don't you just shut down the Deck? Unlike suspend, there is almost no battery drain. Startup isn't that slow for it to be a chore IMO.
