Description
**Describe the problem you have/What new integration you would like**
As described [here](https://github.com/esphome/feature-requests/issues/1055) I want to see the remaining battery voltage and energy percentage from an MAX17043 i2c bus sensor connected to an ESP32 board (DFR firebeetle rev4).
But the sensor shows a permanent value for each:
- 256 % Battery Power
- 5119 V Voltage
This never changes…
**Please describe your use case for this integration and alternatives you've tried:**
Usecase: When board receives battery power supply you can check actual voltage and remaining power percentage.
There are no alternatives I know of.
**Additional context**
Used this ESPhome [config](https://github.com/esphome/feature-requests/issues/1055#issuecomment-999952356) with additional `MAX17043_component.h` as described there.
This is the actual wiring:
