Hello,

I have connected my LIPO battery to my BBBL. I would like to know the charge lever in my battery. Is that feature available in BBL?

I have checked in /sys/class/power_supply

noting I found, any driver I need to attach ?

And battery_monitor.service is running fine.

Thanks in advance.

Jeshwanth,

You can approximate battery SOC from resting voltage, see the following links for the extended discussion:

The BBBL battery per-cell voltage is available with rc_check_battery
