Template:Energy meter/doc

Ever wanted to convey to the community how much energy you have left but didn't know how to show it. Why not use this battery to show your overall energy? When it's zero, it means you are retired or are retiring. It's also great for bots that run on toolserver. Simply input the account expiration date and the battery will automatically show how much energy is left. It's especially useful if the bot owner retires to see how much time is left before the bot dies for good.

Usage
