Hey all! I’m wondering if its possible to change the group battery icon to a different color based on if any one of the batteries falls bellow a certain or preset threshold and activate/change color at say 20 percent?
batteries:
name: battery levels
icon: mdi:battery
entities:
- sensor.driveway_battery
- sensor.battery_garage_side_door
- sensor.vnote20_battery_level
- sensor.convert_smart_lock_battery_level
Not straightforward in the “more info” dialog that you’re showing there. card-mod might be able to, and can certainly do it for icons in regular cards.
I don’t think the sensor domain is supported by group.
I don’t change the icon but change the color of a bar. I use the custom:bar-card to change color of the bar graph for battery charge. I also separate out my battery status.
Example yaml:
type: custom:auto-entities
sort:
method: state
numeric: true
card:
type: custom:bar-card
severity:
- color: '#bf4040'
from: 0
to: 30
- color: '#bf9540'
from: 30.1
to: 70
- color: '#40bf40'
from: 70.1
to: 100
show_header_toggle: false
title: Batteries in Good Shape
height: 16
positions:
value: inside
indicator: outside
icon: 'off'
name: inside
minmax: 'off'
filter:
include:
- entity_id: '*battery*'
exclude:
- state: <70.1
- state: unavailable
- name: '*State*'
- name: '*Health*'
- state: unknown
- entity_id: '*temperature*'
- state: 'off'
- state: idle
That’s pretty brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
