Tried to test batsignal while my battery level was 15

I ran this command:
batsignal -c 10

returns this error:
batsignal: Could not open /sys/class/power_supply/BAT0/status: No such file or directory

I have notice I have a different file structure for my power_supply
|
+---- power_supply
+---ACAD
|
\ BAT1

is there a possible way to change where it points?

If you update to 1.1.1-1 (the current version in the AUR) your battery should be automatically detected if possible. You can also use the -n option to set the battery name. Ex:

batsignal -n BAT1
