Receive Battery percentage via MQTT on OpenHab?

[kunall]

Hello

I'm trying to receive battery percentage over MQTT on openHab. So far i'm dont have any luck. I'm confused, because there is no such V_Battery or something like that.

I would really appreciate any help as i'm trying to finish my project before my final exam starts. :disappointed:

Here is my serial output. I was testing the battery sketch on Nano powerd via USB 5.0v. I know i'm getting incorrect reading, but thats okay for now, I just need to receive battery percentage via MQTT first.

Which MQTT gateway do you use?

Maybe in your gateway the battery percentage is not implemented.

@FotoFieber I'm using THIS MQTT Gateway. Is there a better MQTT gateway solution available? Sorry i'm new to all this.

The sketch you use doesn't support following internal messages:

• sketchinfo
• sketchversion
• time
• batterylevel

See link above...

@FotoFieber I followed the sketch that you provided in your link above called "MQTT Client Gateway". however, while compiling that sketch I'm getting following error?
Any solution or suggestion for that?
