Batter Code Simple Code

This document is an Arduino sketch for a battery gauge that measures the voltage of a 18650 battery and displays the voltage and percentage on an LCD. It uses the LiquidCrystal library to interface with the display and reads the battery voltage from analog pin A0. The program calculates the battery percentage based on the voltage and updates the LCD every second.
