ESPBattery

Arduino Library to calculate the ESP8266 (Feather Huzzah) LiPo battery level.

Description

It uses the Huzzah's ADC pin and a voltage divider. The circuit is documented here: https://github.com/lobeck/adafruit-feather-huzzah-8266-battery-monitor

How to Use

These are the constructor and the member functions the library provides:

    ESPBattery(
		byte analog_pin = A0, 
		int polling_interval_ms = 500, 
		int min_lvl = ESPBATTERY_CRITICAL, 
		int max_lvl = ESPBATTERY_FULL
		);

	float getVoltage();
    int getPercentage();
    int getLevel();
    int getState();
    int getPreviousState();
    String stateToString(int state);
    
    void setLevelChangedHandler(CallbackFunction f);
    void setLevelLowHandler(CallbackFunction f);
    void setLevelCriticalHandler(CallbackFunction f);    
    void setLevelChargingHandler(CallbackFunction f);    

    void loop();

The library provides several callback handlers to be notified when the battery levels changes.

Note: For the class to work, you need to call the loop() member function in your sketch's loop() function. See the example for more details.

Installation

Open the Arduino IDE choose "Sketch > Include Library" and search for "ESP Battery". Or download the ZIP archive (https://github.com/lennarthennigs/ESPBattery/zipball/master), and choose "Sketch > Include Library > Add .ZIP Library..." and select the downloaded file.
