Detailed Description

when activated, this will print a battery report to stdout and light up LEDs to specify power level

The LEDs use the LedEngine::displayPercent() function, with minor/major style. This means the left column (viewing the dog head on) will show the overall power level, and the right column will show the level within the tick lit up in the left column. The more geeky among you may prefer to think of this as a two digit base 5 display.

This gives you pretty precise visual feedback as to remaining power (perhaps more than you really need, but it's as much a demo as a useful tool)

This is implemented as a Control instead of a Behavior on the assumption you wouldn't want to leave this running while you were doing other things (ie not in e-stop). But it definitely blurs the line between the two.
