Introduction: In the realm of smart home management, keeping track of device batteries is paramount to ensure uninterrupted functionality. However, manually resetting battery replacement notifications can be cumbersome and easily forgotten. Fortunately, with the Battery Notes, you can automate this process effortlessly, ensuring your smart home devices run smoothly without missing a beat.
Automating Battery Replacement Tracking: One of the standout features of the Battery Notes is its ability to automate battery replacement tracking. By utilizing simple yet powerful automation scripts, you can seamlessly reset battery-replaced notifications whenever a battery is changed in your smart home devices.

When a battery is replaced in any of your smart home devices, the Battery Notes detects this change through the battery_notes_battery_increased event. Subsequently, the automation script triggers the battery_notes.set_battery_replaced service, effectively resetting the battery-replaced functionality within the plugin. This ensures that your smart home system remains up-to-date with the latest battery changes, eliminating the need for manual intervention.
