Measure a battery level?

Question

I was wondering if there is a way to measure power(a battery level) of android device.. I can see applications doing something with a battery level of an Android device so I was wondering how I can get the battery level from Android APIs. Thanks in advance..

[Here](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/BatteryManager.html) is the API. — iCantSeeSharp, Nov 07 '11 at 23:30

Yes, there is. Check out the BatteryManager class of the SDK.

There's a broadcast receiver that tell you when the battery level changes. See this thread for code: Android Battery in SDK
