low_threshold for battery crashes i3

when adding a low_threshold to the battery for i3status, my i3 crashes. according to the user guide this should work. any idea?

note1: had to change the battery module to battery 1 (not zero) in my config so that it would show up. These are the relevant pieces of the config:

order += "battery 1"
....
battery 1 {
        format = "%status %percentage %remaining"
        low_threshold = "10"
}

(I also tried low_threshold = 10 (without the "").

note2: the same applies to the threshold_type parameter
