Hi Ioana, You can set up a Keyboard Commander shortcut for checking the battery level with an AppleScript, but as Colin states, the battery level, WiFi, date and time, etc. are all icons on the Status Menu bar. Navigate there either with the general Mac shortcut of Control+F8, or use the VoiceOver specific one of VO-m twice (e.g., hold down Control and Option keys, then tap the "m" key twice). Then navigate to the icon you want (e.g. left arrow or VO-Left arrow would take me to my Battery level, then to my clock, etc.). Here's the link to instructions in my post in the archives on how to set up a Keyboard Commander shortcut using the AppleScript that Hai Nguyen Lai posted to the list last year: • VoiceOver Focus to Status Menu bar [was Re: Sort of bazaar problem with Voiceover Focus}: http://www.mail-archive.com/macvisionaries%40googlegroups.com/msg47475.html
