From the project
🔋 Battery status with LED display!
The Battery Level Indicator is an open-source project designed to visually display the charge level of a battery using five green LEDs and a sixth red LED for critical low levels. The board also features an ON/OFF button that activates the system, illuminating two white LEDs when turned on and two blue LEDs at other times.
