Yes:
cat 1wire/26.AA5245010000/MultiSensor/type
MS-TV

I got two 1M Ohm resistors to halve the voltage.
(The size was recommended by a man in the electronics store.)

Tested with a defunct 9 volt battery and got 4.4 volts.
As far as I know this approach should work with my 12 volt battery system
(2 6 volt golf cart batteries). I'll find out when I go to my cabin in the
woods in May.

Thank you for your comments,
Peter
