+## Customization
 
-which means that you need to copy the code above and paste it in your **theme.lua**. Otherwise you can change colors directly in the widget.
+It is possible to customize widget by providing a table with all or some of the following config parameters:
+
+| Name | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `font` | Font | Play 6 |
+| `arc_thickness` | 2 | Thickness of the arc |
+| `show_current_level`| false | Show current charge level |
+| `main_color` | `beautiful.fg_color` | Color of the text with the current charge level and the arc |
+| `low_level_color` | #e53935 | Arc color when battery charge is less that 15% |
+| `medium_level_color` | #c0ca33 |  Arc color when battery charge is between 15% and 40% |
+| `charging` | `beautiful.fg_color` |  Color of the circle inside the arc when charging  |
+| `warning_msg_title` | _Huston, we have a problem_ | Title of the warning popup |
+| `warning_msg_text` | _Battery is dying_ | Text of the warning popup |
+| `warning_msg_position` | `bottom_right` | Position of the warning popup |
+| `warning_msg_icon` | ~/.config/awesome/awesome-wm-widgets/batteryarc-widget/spaceman.jpg | Icon of the warning popup |
