Hello,

@jclo13 On the expansion boards, the battery is connected by an voltage divider to G3 aka P16. There, you can read a voltage proportional to the battery voltage.

@robert-hh Thank you very much. I will try.

If you use a PyTrack or PySense with your LoPy, you can read the voltage directly using the
read_battery_voltagemethod:https://github.com/pycom/pycom-libraries/blob/master/lib/pycoproc/pycoproc.py#L257
