I've written a script that successfully sends me a Telegram message describing the battery state of my PC.

I'd like Task Scheduler to run the script when the power source changes, so that when the power at home dies, I know that my fridge is in danger of defrosting etc. etc.

What I've done to achieve this:

• Opened Event Viewer


• Found the event under Windows Logs -> System, Source is "Kernel-Power"


• Clicked "Attach Task To This Event"


• Set up the task and successfulyl run it manually from Task Scheduler

My problem is that the task does not fire when the computer switches to battery. It does fire when the computer switches back to mains, which doesn't help me!

I've made sure to turn off the default tickbox of "Start the task if the computer is on AC power", so I'd expect the task to fire in all circumstances.

I've also set it to "Run whether the user is logged on or not", though I'm nearly always logged on.

The events look pretty similar from the event log, but this one fires:

<Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">

and this one doesn't:

So does anyone know why the task doesn't fire? It feels like a power saving measure somewhere else in Windows but I can't work it out (something hidden in the power scheme??)
