The full message is:
org.kde.powerdevil: org.kde.powerdevil.chargethresholdhelper.getthreshold failed "Charge thresholds not supported"

Yep, it means what it says. The feature is not supported on your hardware. :) You'll need to report this to the kernel or hardware developers.

Make "charge thresholds not supported" error message more explicit

Hopefully this will make it clear whose fault it is (i.e. not ours).
