Adafruit MAX17048 Usermod (LiPo & LiIon Battery Monitor & Fuel Gauge)

This usermod reads information from an Adafruit MAX17048 and outputs the following:

Battery Voltage
Battery Level Percentage

Dependencies

Libraries:

Adafruit_BusIO@~1.14.5 (by adafruit)
Adafruit_MAX1704X@~1.0.2 (by adafruit)

These must be added under lib_deps in your platform.ini (or platform_override.ini). Data is published over MQTT - make sure you've enabled the MQTT sync interface.

Compilation

To enable, compile with USERMOD_MAX17048 define in the build_flags (e.g. in platformio.ini or platformio_override.ini) such as in the example below:

[env:usermod_max17048_d1_mini]
extends = env:d1_mini
build_flags =
  ${common.build_flags_esp8266}
  -D USERMOD_MAX17048
lib_deps = 
  ${esp8266.lib_deps}
  https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BusIO @ 1.14.5
  https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_MAX1704X @ 1.0.2

Configuration Options

The following settings can be set at compile-time but are configurable on the usermod menu (except First Monitor time):

USERMOD_MAX17048_MIN_MONITOR_INTERVAL (the min number of milliseconds between checks, defaults to 10,000 ms)
USERMOD_MAX17048_MAX_MONITOR_INTERVAL (the max number of milliseconds between checks, defaults to 10,000 ms)
USERMOD_MAX17048_FIRST_MONITOR_AT

Additionally, the Usermod Menu allows you to:

Enable or Disable the usermod
Enable or Disable Home Assistant Discovery (turn on/off to sent MQTT Discovery entries for Home Assistant)
Configure SCL/SDA GPIO Pins

API

The following method is available to interact with the usermod from other code modules:

getBatteryVoltageV read the last battery voltage (in Volt) obtained from the sensor
getBatteryPercent reads the last battery percentage obtained from the sensor

MQTT

MQTT topics are as follows (<deviceTopic> is set in MQTT section of Sync Setup menu):

Measurement type	MQTT topic
Battery Voltage	`<deviceTopic>/batteryVoltage`
Battery Percent	`<deviceTopic>/batteryPercent`
