I think it would have to be 'under-load' to get an accurate reading.
The provari applies a small draw (you can hear the coil active) to read the battery voltage. If I take it out and meter it, it generally always says 3.7v regardless if its been in the Vari for awhile or just hit the voltage cut off.

The above, relatively inexpensive voltmeters can display the current voltage on a battery, and also meter your atty (or other delivery device) resistance. Available at most high volume e-cig suppliers. RTD Vapor or Super T Manufacturing would be a good place to start.
Not sure if that is what you were asking about though.

I don't believe this will work to find the state-of-charge of an eGo Twist-style battery; on VV devices like the eGo Twists, these inline voltmeters display output voltage, which is whatever you have the little dial set to ... the output voltage should be the same (within limits) regardless of the actual charge level of the battery. That's what the buck/boost circuit in these VV devices are for, to maintain the "set" voltage for as long as possible, no matter whether the battery is freshly charged or nearly discharged.
AFAIK, there is no simple way to detect state-of-charge on an eGo Twist-style battery without some specialized meters ... items the average vaper is not likely to have.

I could've sworn JT said the Twists would have the light feature but neither of mine do.
I believe the 'ego-c upgrades' have it though. But they are either non-VV or run a regulated/unregulated circuit.

sounds like reason enough to make a twist v2.0! lord knows manufacturers have made revisions for less cause.
They have already made some improvements to the dial knob for easier adjusting (easier to see and twist). So you never know. I think it'd cost them pennies to put that feature in the Twist.
Actually, on my four eGo Twists, when the battery is low (very low!), the button will begin flashing rapidly about 15 times and then quit firing ...
