Hoping for some help with a simple template

Can someone help me with the writing of a template in the exclude portion of the automation below. If this is doable?

I would like to exclude anything that doesn’t have the word “level” in the entity name or possibly even use the device name that the entity is related to. Is this case specific in each instance?

My entities are named as:

water_heater_water_sensor_battery_level

My devices are named as:

Water Heater Water Sensor

alias: >-
  (ACTION- AUTOMATIC- SECURITY- NOTIFICATION) Low battery level detection &
  notification for all battery sensors
description: ""
use_blueprint:
  path: sbyx/low-battery-level-detection-notification-for-all-battery-sensors.yaml
  input:
    time: "19:00:00"
    day: 7
    actions:
      - service: script.text_notify
        data:
          who: parents
          title: LOW BATTERY
          message: There is a low battery on the {{sensors}}.
          data: null
          group: batteries
          tag: null
    exclude:
      entity_id:
        - sensor.westons_iphone_12_battery_level
        - sensor.weston_s_ipad_battery_level
        - sensor.lenovo_tablet_battery_level
        - sensor.garage_door_battery_level

Thank you all so much for your help/ guidance!!

And below is the blueprint the above is referencing:

blueprint:

    a certain battery level threshold and if so execute an action.

        well as binary battery sensors with value 'on').

    exclude:

      {% if 0 <= state.state | int(-1) < threshold | int and not state.entity_id in exclude.entity_id %}
        {% set result.sensors = result.sensors + [state.name ~ ' (' ~ state.state ~ ' %)'] %}
      {% endif %}
    {% endfor %}
    {% for state in states.binary_sensor | selectattr('attributes.device_class', '==', 'battery') | selectattr('state', '==', 'on') %}

        {% set result.sensors = result.sensors + [state.name] %}
      {% endif %}

    {{result.sensors|join(', ')}}

Use the following in your exclude

{{ states.sensor | map(attribute='entity_id')
| reject('search', 'level') | list }}

Thank you for your help with this. I will give it a go in just a few.

Thank you so much!!
