All Ecowitt console have this function for the sensors they support.Apart from adaptations to Python3 Matthew doesn't seem to have worked on the iInterceptor driver for quite a long time - and the Ecowitt sensor universe has significantly expanded ever since.
Other developers have created already an extended version where the WS90 capacitor voltage is included.
There is a (working !) extention of the Interceptor driver (interceptor.py) made/adapted by the German developer Werner Krenn (also a member of the community here) to cover for ALL recent Ecowitt sensors existing today.
See attachment. You can experiment with it.I suggest you do the installation with the basic version first - https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-interceptor/
Understand how it works and make it working for you - it's pretty easy and straightforward (you can install the interceptor driver in parallel to your GW1000 driver - the entry in the station stanza in weewx.conf decides which driver (section) you use). Once it works with the basic sensors (it will create non-fatal error messages in the syslog for every non-covered sensor), save the original interceptor.py and replace it by the one in the zip file.
Also add to weewx.conf in your [Accumulator] stanza [Accumulator] [[lightning_strike_count]] extractor = lastThat's if you want to use a WH57 lightning sensor together with the Interceptor driver
If you don't create the non-existing database fields in the wview_extended database schema (or repurpose existing but unused fields to accomodate your new sensor data) and use the respective field map and/or respective entries in the weewx.conf [StdCalibrate] [[Corrections]] stanza, this data won't be saved/archived and will only be available as $current between archiving periods.
But that's not a driver issue, it's a user issue. 😎You want to save the "extra" data which are not part of the wview_extended database schema, you have to extend it (or repurpose)
