Battery Level widget

This widget provides a clear visual representation of your battery level, accompanied by a percentage indicator for quick reference.

Settings

Datastream - Select or create a datastream of data type integer or double. Value should come in 0-100 range.

Show value - You can show the battery % value. Turn it off to see just the icon.

Properties you can change

You can hide/show header widgets from device. Use isHidden property API:

Blynk.setProperty(vPin, "isHidden", "propertyValue");

Where:

vPin is: virtual pin number the widget is assigned to

isHidden: property that controls the widget visibility

propertyValue: value of the property you want to change. true and false values are supported.

Example:

Blynk.setProperty(V12, "isHidden", true); // This will hide the widget

Don't put Blynk.setProperty() into the void loop() as it can cause a flood of messages and your hardware will be disconnected. Send such updates only when necessary, or use timers.

Change widget properties via HTTPs API

Updates the Datastream Property and all assigned Widgets

GET https://{server_address}/external/api/update/property?token={your 32 char token}&pin={your vPin}&{property}={value}

The endpoint allows you to update the Datastream Property value via GET request. All widgets (both web and mobile) that are assigned to this datastream will inherit this property. The Datastream Property is persistent and will be stored forever until you change it with another value. In order to clear the property you need to clear the device data in device actions menu.

Example: https://blynk.cloud/external/api/update/property?token=GVki9IC70vb3IqvsV0YD3el4y0OpneL1&pin=V1&isHidden=true
