+| `font` | `beautiful.font` | Font name and size, like `Play 12` |
| `timeout` | 1 | How often in seconds the widget refreshes. Check the note below |
| `tooltip` | false | Display brightness level in a tooltip when the mouse cursor hovers the widget |
+| `percentage` | false | Display a '%' character after the brightness level |
_Note:_ If brightness is controlled only by the widget (either by a mouse, or by a shortcut, then the `timeout` could be quite big, as there is no reason to synchronize the brightness level).
