Or you can modify your database with wee_database and add fields 
wh31_ch1_batt, wh31_ch2_batt etc to the database schema. Utilising the 
existing batteryStatus1, batteryStatus2 fields is arguably simpler and 
quicker to implement, adding fields to the database arguably provide self 
evident names to the database fields and only involves use of wee_database 
and no modification of the field map.

At the end of the day if you want plots of battery state values you need to 
have the battery state data appear in loop packet fields that exist in the 
database - how you do that is a matter of personal preference (if you just 
want to display the current value there is no need to change the database 
or the field map just the skin config).

This is my 'example' - I have a WH26 outside sensor, four WH31 inside 
sensors on channels 1-4, and one WH51 soil moisture sensor so I mapped them 
as follows to match my hardware.  You'd need to do something similar for 
your sensors.

    [[field_map_extensions]]
        outTempBatteryStatus = wh26_batt
        batteryStatus1 = wh31_ch1_batt
        batteryStatus2 = wh31_ch2_batt
        batteryStatus3 = wh31_ch3_batt
        batteryStatus4 = wh31_ch4_batt
        batteryStatus8 = wh51_ch1_batt
