Zigbee Low Battery Warning system
Monitoring more than a couple Zigbee devices for battery levels can be cumbersome. So I made a system that adds new devices automatically,keeps the battery info as a dashboard and sends you an Android notification when battery needs replacing.
Features:
- add devices automatically
- Dashboard chart
- notification for Android
- custom low trigger
- support for battery types and purchase links
- more...
Requirements
- node-red-contrib-dashboard-average-bars
- node-red-dashboard
You will need the following Android Apps:
This Setup leans on the following guides: Perfect Autonotifications, Credentials in NodeRED,
Settings
- battery - battery type for your device
- name - friendly_name from yaml file (or ID)
- Notification Device - name of AutoRemote device served with credential system
- min Value - Low battery threshold value for notifications
