Adafruit LC709203F LiPoly / LiIon Fuel Gauge and Battery Monitor - STEMMA JST PH & QT / Qwiic (ADA4712)

I was not impressed with the Battery Percentages - though I didn’t dive into the data sheet.

Once I saw the graph of how steeply the battery voltage drops off at the end, I decided that the actual battery voltage would be much more accurate for my automation … and that the INA3221 lets me also monitor the solar panel’s output and USB-In power (when doing an emergency top-up in sustained wet weather).

Percentage seemed much more human-friendly … but I ended up making a gauge which I think does the job :wink:

Hey @Donald23173

I’m also a fan of the gauges, having that visual representation to me is easier to get all the info you need at a glance rather than having to think too hard about it.
