Hi,
Running Ubuntu server 20.4 and hassio on laptop with battery
trying to set linux_battery get error in info: No battery found
how can i read the battery level of the laptop that running the system ?
If I were you in your situation, I would take a gander at the source code to determine what it is looking for.
You can see that you are erroring right here.
The code states it is looking under /sys/class/power_supply/BATxxxx and it is not able to find it for one reason or another.
Note that it is expecting a battery_id.
Based on that, what is your configuration you are supplying?
What is in the directory /sys/class/power_supply/???
Okay so as I mentioned, did you supply the following in your configuration?
# Example configuration.yaml entry
sensor:
- platform: linux_battery
battery: 0
As you can see in the short documentation for Linux battery, “battery integer(Optional, default: 1)” where your battery is number 0 and not 1!
