$Battery.batteryLevel_NODEID

---

Hi Folks,

just seen that $Battery.batteryLevel_XX for mysensors devices its not working anymore

I noticed the same. I solved it by deleting the battery device and add it again after a restart of Pimatic.

now i have removed and readded the device but all nodes has the same percentage

maybe a bug?

Hmm, can’t help you there. I have only one node for now, and that is being topped up by a solar cell every day, so if all is well it will show 100% all the time.

Next coming weeks I will put more sensors online and be able to keep an eye on that.

I checked this too. All entries have the same and wrong value 97%. Also the name property does not work. It shows always the original id of the attached sensor and not what I entered in the name property field of battery sensor device.

Damn! I hope this would be fixed soon!

Please check this. I think that is your problem. https://forum.pimatic.org/topic/1823/notice-mysensorsbattery-device-will-change

Hey sweebee,
It’s still not working

The name problem is not the main issue. I observed that a changed name is only updated when I reload the web page. More serious is the battery value which is wrong.

this issue is still open

Any ideas to fix it?

I have several battery powered nodes and here they are working fine. Can you post your config of the nodes?

I have more sensors now and have been dicking around with the one I already had.
For as far as I can see, all works as expected.
I have a MySensorsMulti device with all the batteries in one heap so I can see everything at a glance.
