How to change critically low battery value?

I would like my laptop to hibernate itself when the battery level is 10% to be sure it has enough power to complete the operation properly. Actually if I don't pay attention my laptop informs me it will hibernate when it's too late, so instead it brutally shuts down.
This kills lithium batteries and is not acceptable.

Start dconf-editor

Browse to org -> gnome -> settings-daemon -> plugins -> power

Change the values of percentage-critical and percentage-action to the level you require

Change use-time-for-policy to false

Done!

You can also do this from a terminal with:

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power percentage-critical 10

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power percentage-action 9

gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.power use-time-for-policy false
