Hello,
you can try this:

LANG=en; gnokii --monitor 3600 2>&1 | grep  "^Battery:"

This display all 3600 seconds a line with the monitoring output like 
this:

address@hidden:~ > LANG=en; gnokii --monitor 3600 2>&1 | grep  "^Battery:"
Battery: 100
Battery: 100
....

If you want monitoring the battery status for only one time (to use this 
in a cronjob) use this patch: 

http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/gnokii/gnokii/gnokii/
gnokii.c.diff?r1=1.409&r2=1.410

The patch adds the "gnokii --monitor once" option.

Thanks again to Bozo and greets from Kiel, Germany,
Christian
