Hello,
I know this project, but I have never build my own version:
Also Spakrfun has a product, that might help to you:
Please check these and then we can discuss more ideas 
I Thibault il.s can be better idéal, on raspberry you can see if you batterie is low. If we can found this program we can put on Cayenne, maybe, i don.t Know if it.s possible…
Sorry if is not clear, i.m not english !
And sorry if Word is not correct i write on my phone and it’s programmed on french it.s big problem with autocorrection…

Don’t worry. I understand what you mean. I will try to find a solution!
Hmmm, is there a way you can send that battery level to Cayenne so we can create a widget for it?

@ognqn.chikov @rsiegel @bestes what about this. Arduino Battery Voltage Indicator : 5 Steps (with Pictures) - Instructables
then send the value to cayenne guage widget.
i have not tired this but i think it should work.

If you can get a Battery voltage, percentage, or ratio calculated, we have a nifty battery widget available through the MQTT API!
A statement like client.virtualWrite(5, batteryPercentage, "batt", "p") will populate it:
You could then build a trigger statement off of the state of this widget to alert you.
As @rsiegel says, you can use the mqtt api 
Oooo I like that. I have a VCC reading on one of my projects, I’ll have to turn that into a percent and use that.

It also takes volts with a v as the unit type, and a “ratio” with r (I’m not quite sure a ratio of what – @croczey do you know?)
But it looks like those still displaying as a percentage, so probably best to stick with a % value for now
