I installed the Everspring Water and Leak detector and I know it shows battery in the ST app, but is there a way to send push notification if battery gets low?
You could use Rule Machine to do this
It sounds like a little much to use for one thing, so I guess I will have to just watch it. It just would be nice to have my devices tell me by sms that the battery condition is below 25%. But thanks for the suggestion.
Thanks, just set it up will see how well it works out.
Ok I opened the code and copied it to the new smart app then configured it in my phone but no sms I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong. Does it always send sms at set time or only when batteries reach that set level?
Joel, Rule Machine is best for doing little things one at a time, so it’s perfect for what you need. One rule can notify you whenever a battery on your list goes below 25%.
I installed Battery Monitor, but not sure if it is working. I don’t know if it sends status each day at a certain time I set or just when it reaches the percentage of battery I selected. I asked for help from the developer, so maybe he will get back. Rule machine seems a little daunting to me. But maybe I am reading too much into it.
It’s very simple, actually.
Trigger: battery < 25, multiple any
Action: notify me with device name
If the Battery Monitor doesn’t work I will attempt to install Rule Machine and Rule. I might need some help, but once installed I will see. Thanks.
Well I wasn’t sure Battery Monitor was working as there was no sms message sent when I changed the values to trigger an alarm. so I went and installed Rule machine. Not sure if it is working, but I have it setup with no errors and deleted battery monitor.
HeHe… now you just need a weak battery somewhere…
