 description: PeaNUT Widget Configuration
 ---
 
+This widget adds support for [Network UPS Tools](https://networkupstools.org/) via a third party tool, [PeaNUT](https://github.com/Brandawg93/PeaNUT).
+
 The default ups name is `ups`. To configure more than one ups, you must create multiple peanut services.
 
 Allowed fields: `["battery_charge", "ups_load", "ups_status"]`
 
+!!! note
+
+    This widget requires an additional tool, [PeaNUT](https://github.com/Brandawg93/PeaNUT), as noted. Other projects exist to achieve similar results using a `customapi` widget, for example [NUTCase](https://github.com/ArthurMitchell42/nutcase#using-nutcase-homepage).
