You can use these ads1015 in conjunction with the bangood module.

It can be mapped so you press that and another button for various functions, volume control, monitor on and off, safe shutdown, WiFi and bluetooth on or off. It can be skipped and mapped to an existing gpio button so you'd press L plus the buttons for the fiction instead of function plus the buttons for the function.

Yeah. You can use the function button for hotkeys built into the mintybatterymonitor script or the minty combo script.
You can use that button. Or you can map the function key to another button if you don't want that extra one.

is it correct, the scriopt only works with GPIO controller wiring? So what to do to get the script running in combination with Arduino based controller pcb?

The combo script only works with gpio because the script looks for gpio button presses. You can use the battery monitor with an Arduino however.

How would you map this while using an Arduino? Is the function button neccessary? Or would you just map that to an unused button on the Arduino?

You wouldn't, the script only looks at the gpio for key presses so you'd have to either use a function button on just the gpio or not use an Arduino if you use this script. That is only if you want the function button, you can do it without a function button I believe
