Battery Level Column in Device Summary

Is there a place where you can view the battery level for all your devices on one page?

If not, I think it would be very useful to have another column of batter level included on the device summary page. Maybe next to last activity.

Thanks!

Create a dashboard for nothing but batteries.

I second the first request of having a battery level column on the Devices page. It sure would beat having to go to each individual device to view the level. Also, setting up a Dashboard with nothing but battery level tiles isn't as nice as simply having the battery levels in a column on the Devices page.

3rd.

Another advantage to having the data as a column on the Devices page, vs. a dedicated dashboard, is that it enables easy sorting by lowest battery percentage -- a quick way to see what devices need new batteries, rather than using a dashboard where the critical devices may be off-screen and require scrolling to be seen.

You can also setup HSM to alert you when batteries are low. That is what I do verses going around and proactively looking for low batteries.

I think both have their place. Alerts from HSM are great - and I do that.

But once I get an alert and already have the batteries out, I would like to look at the list of which other ones are close so I can go ahead and replace them too.

I too would love to have a battery level on devices columns sortable, and

It would also be nice to know the time frame between battery changes in a log as well. That would help determine best batteries to use and life of battery types, lithium rechagables vs one use.
