# Welcome to the battery usermod! 🔋 Enables battery level monitoring of your project. For this to work, the positive side of the (18650) battery must be connected to pin `A0` of the d1 mini/esp8266 with a 100k Ohm resistor (see [Useful Links](#useful-links)). If you have an ESP32 board, connect the positive side of the battery to ADC1 (GPIO32 - GPIO39)

## ⚙️ Features - 💯 Displays current battery voltage - 🚥 Displays battery level - 🚫 Auto-off with configurable Threshold - 🚨 Low power indicator with many configuration posibilities ## 🎈 Installation define `USERMOD_BATTERY` in `wled00/my_config.h` ### Example wiring

### Define Your Options | Name | Unit | Description | | ----------------------------------------------- | ----------- |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | `USERMOD_BATTERY` | | define this (in `my_config.h`) to have this usermod included wled00\usermods_list.cpp | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MEASUREMENT_PIN` | | defaults to A0 on ESP8266 and GPIO35 on ESP32 | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MEASUREMENT_INTERVAL` | ms | battery check interval. defaults to 30 seconds | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MIN_VOLTAGE` | v | minimum battery voltage. default is 2.6 (18650 battery standard) | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MAX_VOLTAGE` | v | maximum battery voltage. default is 4.2 (18650 battery standard) | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_TOTAL_CAPACITY` | mAh | the capacity of all cells in parralel sumed up | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_CALIBRATION` | | offset / calibration number, fine tune the measured voltage by the microcontroller | | Auto-Off | --- | --- | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_AUTO_OFF_ENABLED` | true/false | enables auto-off | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_AUTO_OFF_THRESHOLD` | % (0-100) | when this threshold is reached master power turns off | | Low-Power-Indicator | --- | --- | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_LOW_POWER_INDICATOR_ENABLED` | true/false | enables low power indication | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_LOW_POWER_INDICATOR_PRESET` | preset id | when low power is detected then use this preset to indicate low power | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_LOW_POWER_INDICATOR_THRESHOLD` | % (0-100) | when this threshold is reached low power gets indicated | | `USERMOD_BATTERY_LOW_POWER_INDICATOR_DURATION` | seconds | for this long the configured preset is played | All parameters can be configured at runtime via the Usermods settings page. ## ⚠️ Important - Make sure you know your battery specifications! All batteries are **NOT** the same! - Example: | Your battery specification table | | Options you can define | | :-------------------------------- |:--------------- | :---------------------------- | | Capacity | 3500mAh 12,5 Wh | | | Minimum capacity | 3350mAh 11,9 Wh | | | Rated voltage | 3.6V - 3.7V | | | **Charging end voltage** | **4,2V ± 0,05** | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MAX_VOLTAGE` | | **Discharge voltage** | **2,5V** | `USERMOD_BATTERY_MIN_VOLTAGE` | | Max. discharge current (constant) | 10A (10000mA) | | | max. charging current | 1.7A (1700mA) | | | ... | ... | ... | | .. | .. | .. | Specification from: [Molicel INR18650-M35A, 3500mAh 10A Lithium-ion battery, 3.6V - 3.7V](https://www.akkuteile.de/lithium-ionen-akkus/18650/molicel/molicel-inr18650-m35a-3500mah-10a-lithium-ionen-akku-3-6v-3-7v_100833) ## 🌐 Useful Links - https://lazyzero.de/elektronik/esp8266/wemos_d1_mini_a0/start - https://arduinodiy.wordpress.com/2016/12/25/monitoring-lipo-battery-voltage-with-wemos-d1-minibattery-shield-and-thingspeak/ ## 📝 Change Log 2022-12-25 - added "auto-off" feature - added "low-power-indication" feature - added "calibration/offset" field to configuration page - added getter and setter, so that user usermods could interact with this one - update readme (added new options, made it markdownlint compliant) 2021-09-02 - added "Battery voltage" to info - added circuit diagram to readme - added MQTT support, sending battery voltage - minor fixes 2021-08-15 - changed `USERMOD_BATTERY_MIN_VOLTAGE` to 2.6 volt as default for 18650 batteries - Updated readme, added specification table 2021-08-10 - Created
