It would be nice to have an ability to input battery type for devices that are not powered by cord, so to know what type of battery a device needs when we get a low-battery reminder.

I don’t know about Zigbee or Zwave but Matter has an attribute so the device can tell the type of battery it needs. They could use it if the device reports it, would be a nice “Home Insight” feature.
There are many interesting SmartThings capabilities but none of the stock drivers make use of them.
Matter drivers for instance only populate the battery percentage but not the quantity or type. Do they actually use that field for other devices?
