battery temperature

[z3us22]

hi everyone,
I just recently read that the Volkswagen Connect API also delivers the temperature of the battery. If so - that would be a nice addition to volkswagencarnet :)

I vote for this option! Code is available in https://github.com/mitch-dc/volkswagen_we_connect_id/blob/main/custom_components/volkswagen_we_connect_id/sensor.py#L406-L427

Thanks for pointing out. I will add it in v5.0.0.

The sensors are added in v5.0.0-beta3

FYI @RobMeerwijk, @z3us22

Great! Can I test it safely. In other words is the beta more or less stable?

[stickpin]

yes, it should be stable. I am not releasing half-backed features, so you should be safe to run it. :)

Working! Thanks a lot. I use the battery temperature for calculating charging time. If below 5 and SoC above 80% charging rate is reduced by the car.
