[SOLVED]Fluxbox battery monitor

Hey guys, I'm trying to get something on my desktop to monitor my battery life.  I've googled for various conky coes but I can't seem to get any of them to work.  It doesn't have to be in my conky I just want something that's always up displaying my battery life.  Can anyone point me in the right direction?

This is the section that gives battery info from my conky config file.

${color grey}Battery: $color $battery
 $battery_percent% ${battery_bar 6}
${color grey}Time left: $color $battery_time
