Home Assistant Blueprint: Low battery level detection & notification for all...

Does this work for the 433MHZ sensors..that work though the Sonoff RF Bridge ?
THese sensors sen3 3 codes - Open, Close & Low Batt Code. Can this template be adapted for the Low Batt Code ?

Author

Is the low-battery state exposed in HA and if so, how?

the 433MHz sensor send out 3 codes. I have seens on the forums users making thoer own automation to alert when the "Low Batt" code is recived from the Sensor via the RF Bridge.

example
12F70A - open
12F70E - closed
12F707 - tamper
12F706 - low battery

I see right now only actual sensor entities in HA are supported, i.e. ones you can find under Settings - Entities.

I used this on a system that uses 24-hour clock. I set the time option to 12:00 PM. The automation that was created had time value converted to 24:00:00. This did not work and broke the automation. Changing it to a valid value fixed it.

I don't know if it is a bug in this blueprint or in HA.

Great Blueprint.
Not sure what to add to the "Actions" part, I want to get a notification if any device have low battery.
Notification in HA Notifications area is good enough.
Any advice?

Great Blueprint.
Not sure what to add to the "Actions" part, I want to get a notification if any device have low battery.
Notification in HA Notifications area is good enough.

Action type: "Call Service"
Service: notify.notify
Fill in the message you want to be notified with.

(notify.persistent_notification to add a notification to the "notifications" section of the HAss app. notify.notify to send a push notification to your devices. you can also use something like notify.email to send emails.)

Great Blueprint.

To get all my 22 battery powered devices, including those that displays voltage instead of percent, I modified the sensors part with this code:

sensors: >-
{% set result = namespace(sensors=[]) %}
{% for state in states.sensor | selectattr('attributes.device_class', '==', 'battery') %}
{% if state.state | int < threshold and not state.state == 'unavailable' %}
{% set result.sensors = result.sensors + [state.name ~ ' (' ~ state.state ~ '%)'] %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% for sensor in states.binary_sensor %}
{% if 'battery_level' in sensor.attributes %}
{% if ((state_attr(sensor.entity_id, 'battery_level')-2) |float/0.01)|round(1) | int < threshold and not sensor.state == 'unavailable' %}
{% set result.sensors = result.sensors + [sensor.name ~ ' (' ~ ((state_attr(sensor.entity_id, 'battery_level')-2)|float/0.01)|round(1) ~ '%)'] %}
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% for sensor in states.camera %}
{% if 'battery_level' in sensor.attributes %}
{% if state_attr(sensor.entity_id, 'battery_level') | int < threshold and not sensor.state == 'unavailable' %}
{% set result.sensors = result.sensors + [sensor.name ~ ' (' ~ state_attr(sensor.entity_id, 'battery_level')~ '%)'] %}
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{{result.sensors|join('\n')}}

I also joined the result with '\n' instead of ', ' which displays one device per row when I do a persistent notification.

I have 2 actions:

service: persistent_notification.create
data:
title: Warning low battery level!
message: Low battery level{{ ':' }}{{ '\n' -}}{{sensors}}

service: notify.notify
data:
title: Warning low battery level!
message: 'Low battery level: {{sensors}}'

Thanks Guys for helping me out, now both HA and email notification in place. So obvious after seeing your answers.

Super helpful, thank you!

Ecobee motion sensor puts the battery level in the attribute column not as a separate class. This blueprint does not work with this type of battery level logging.

I made the modifications in a blueprint but when I receive the notification (Telegram) it shows me in a single line, how can I see it in two rows?

It's possible?

Thank you.

I can get it with:

I don't use Telegram for notifications, but the screenshot you shared looks very much as though you had written '/n' instead of '\n' in your join(). Are you sure the new version is the one which is being used?

the 433MHz sensor send out 3 codes. I have seens on the forums users making thoer own automation to alert when the "Low Batt" code is recived from the Sensor via the RF Bridge.

Not sure if you figured this out, but you need to create a binary_sensor for these mqtt style battery high/low sensors. This is what one will look like:

• platform: mqtt
  name: family_motion_battery
  state_topic: 'rtl_433/9b13b3f4-rtl433/devices/Interlogix-Security/motion/4cf72a/battery_ok'
  payload_off: "1"
  payload_on: "0"
  device_class: battery

12F706

you have 433MHz sensor working via Sonoff RF Bridge ? and this binary_sensor config is working for you ?..On my RF bridge......the code it sends out for low batt is XXXX06 (XXXX is unique to a sensor, XXXX0A for Open/On & XXXX0E for closed/Off)..if you say its working for you then i will giv e it a try..but i dont see this topic sent out by my Tasmotized Sonoff RF Bridge "rtl_433/9b13b3f4-rtl433/devices/Interlogix-Security/motion/4cf72a/battery_ok"

Ho to remove that blueprint. It don't work and after I delete it from schema tab and automation tab every restart I get notification:

How to delete this blueprint?

How to delete this blueprint?

You must still have an automation which uses it. Look through your automations for instances of this blueprint and remove any you find.

Given that the blueprint file is deleted, the automations will be disabled, but you need to remove them completely for this error to be resolved.

   Colm

OK, thanks. I remove lines from automations.yaml file.
Regards.

Was using but it suddenly stopped working. Tried to reinstall after deleting automation and blueprint and when I try to reinstall and configure I get an error “Message malformed: Missing input actions”

Help please

I think it is because the selectors action and time on this have hanging {} removing those seem to fix the triggering for me.

I've been using this for awhile and just recently added a device thats reports battery as a voltage (two AA batteries reporting at 3.14v at the moment) I know I could just exclude this device, but wondering if there would be a way to only look at devices that have a unit of measure of %? (unit in my case is v)

{{ '\n' -}}

Is possible to use {{ '\n' -}} in telegram message? I have tried but nothing happen. thank you.

Another question:

Test is run at configured time either everyday (0) or on a given weekday (1: Monday ... 7: Sunday)

Value 0 for every day is not accepted (min is 1). why? Thank you.

Is there a way to only get fire the action when {{sensors}} is not empty?
