Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some devices are bad at reporting the state of charge - especially things like Aqara PIRs, etc.
Many devices will, however, report their voltage, which can be used to infer the battery state - e.g. Voltage dropping from 3,005mV to, say, 2,300mV
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be great to have an option to use the Voltage instead of Charge state for specific devices.
Perhaps, a device specific configuration item that says to use voltage instead of charge?
Describe alternatives you've considered
n/a
Additional context
An example of a problematic device:
I have a Xiaomi GZCGQ01LM Lux Sensor. This is reporting the battery state as 0%, and hence battery low. However, the Voltage is being reported as 2,700mV and the device is still working perfectly, and has been for many months.
This would be a great example of where Voltage is a battery indication of battery health than charge.
