It's better to use the notification from the device if it is reliable;
dead reckoning isn't going to work well either for voltage reduction
since the time taken to implement a drop in voltage is more a function
of the loading than anything else, the regulator can't really control
it.  For most DC-DC loads it'll be quick enough though.
