Hello !

Can someone here please give me some clues on how to monitor battery status on a Raspberry Pi project with an on screen display like in the MintyPi or in Kite's SAIO.

I haven't found something relevant yet.

I'm not afraid of doing some electronics.
Basically, i just need something that will read battery voltage, and then, i will calculate through a script like a percentage, and display something on the screen according to this value.

Very simple :D

If you have a link for an existing product with also a safe shutdown feature, i'll take it too :mrgreen:

Thanks for any help
