Entity value into sensor value

[vantech2020 (RussTech)]

Hi,

Hope everyone is well.

I am trying to take a value from an entity and then that entity into a sensor value (to use on Lovelace to display a gauge from 0-100%).

The entity is as follows:

Climate.Kitchen
Entity: Battery_Level

Any ideas, I am thinking a template sensor?

Thanks.

Do it.

{{ state_attr('climate.kitchen','battery_level') }}

Does this go in the Lovelace gauge or within the YAML config?

Thanks.

Create a template sensor for the entity attribute in configuration.yaml and add a Gauge card for it in Lovelace.
