It has 53 installs sharing analytics, works locally and was last updated November 3, 2026. From the [repository description](https://github.com/prestomation/ha-home-keeper-battery-notes): > Battery Notes x Home Keeper meta integration [Open in My Home Assistant](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/hacs_repository/?owner=prestomation&repository=ha-home-keeper-battery-notes&category=integration) On Home Assistant 2026.11 or newer? [Open it in the Marketplace](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/marketplace_repository/?owner=prestomation&repository=ha-home-keeper-battery-notes&category=integration) ## Supports - **Works locally**: Talks to your devices on your own network. No vendor cloud in between. - **From the Marketplace**: Installed through the Marketplace, formerly HACS. - **Actively maintained**: Its author released or pushed a change in the last six months. ## Setting it up Install it from the Marketplace and restart Home Assistant, then add it under Settings, Devices and services. ### After setup - **Task name template** - **Two-way sync (completing in Home Keeper marks the battery replaced)**: Applies to replacement tasks only. Charging a battery is not a replacement, so completing a charge task tells Battery Notes nothing. - **Clear the task when the battery level recovers on its own** - **Rechargeable batteries**: A rechargeable going low means "charge it", not "replace the battery", so it gets its own handling. Charge it: raise a charge task — right for a radiator valve or lock whose pack you top up as a chore. Ignore them: raise nothing — right for a phone or watch you charge without being told. Replace it: treat it like a disposable, for replacements you track by hand. Switching between the first and last recreates existing tasks, which starts their history over. - **Charge task name template** - **Also flag batteries that stop reporting (often dead)**: A dead battery usually stops reporting instead of going low. When on, a battery that hasn't reported for the number of days below gets a task. The day threshold also filters brief dropouts (restarts, network blips). - **Days with no report before flagging a battery**: Only applies when the option above is on. - **Keep a battery count in Home Keeper**: Home Keeper gets an appliance with one part for each battery type Battery Notes reports. Enter a count on a part and Home Keeper takes the batteries a device holds off that count when you complete its replacement task. Turn the option off and the appliance stays as it is. - **Name of the battery appliance**: The appliance name in Home Keeper. Default: "Batteries".

See > - Spares in the drawer → Home Keeper keeps a Batteries appliance with one part per battery type, and a replaced battery comes off the count. See > - You replace it, from either side → the two stay in sync (check the task off in Home Keeper, or press Battery Notes' Battery Replaced button / let the level recover). > - Between low events the task is dormant — it leaves the to-do list and calendar and sits in Home Keeper's collapsed Monitored section, so only batteries that actually need attention show as due,… From the README of [prestomation/ha-home-keeper-battery-notes](https://github.com/prestomation/ha-home-keeper-battery-notes#readme), [MIT License](https://spdx.org/licenses/MIT.html).
