Can't find these anywhere else (fluxbox applets)

Can someone give me a list of applets for fluxbox? The general ones.

I currently have nm-applet but I don't use GNOME anymore so I ws wondering if it's still the same?

Fluxbox doesn't have applets however nm-applet works as a tray icon so you can still it with Fluxbox:

sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
nm-applet

nm-applet is already there but what are the other ones for battery and sound? Those are the only two that I need.

For sound try volumeicon and for the battery try xfce4-power-manager.

Both worked, thanks.

One more thing - I just got a new theme (Waterlight) and the buttons on the top right are nearly impossible to see. Can I edit it somehow in the .cfg?

I think you can change themes/styles from the Fluxbox right-click menu.

You can also edit the theme itself,which are called styles in Fluxbox.
There is a how-to here;

There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.
