Public bug reported:

I accidentally stumbled across this. If in line 22 on_ac_power returns a
non zero exit code the next line is never reached. Instead, the shell
terminates immediately with that non zero exit code because of "set -e"
in line 3. In this script it does not pose a problem because the shell
is asked to exit anyway if check_power() returns non zero but it works
differently than is apparently intended (concluding from the logic).

I will attach a suggest patch and a demo illustrating that the patch
works as the original script seems to intend to.
