Audio AirPlay devices
This is super easyCheck out the C3 version of my preset, you'll find an "AirPlay" (Audio only) group there.
The group opens through a button that displays the current output device, and if this is an AirPods Device displays the battery status in the line below.
The Script to find the connected device (used by myself to open the group)
--GET STORED NAME
tell application "BetterTouchTool"
--attempt to get variable
try
set LclAirPodsName to get_string_variable "AirPodsWg_DevceName"
end try
end tell

set AirPlayName to name of the first AirPlay device whose selected is true
if AirPlayName contains LclAirPodsName then
set returnValue to (AirPlayName & (checkBattery() of me)) as string
else if AirPlayName contains "Computer" then
set returnValue to (AirPlayName & (checkStatus() of me)) as string

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "name:"

set numberOfDevices to count of myList

Script to display an AirPlay Device (needs to be repeated *n* times, returns the names of the devices)
tell application "iTunes"
set listOfAirPlayNames to (get name of every AirPlay device)
set AirPlayDevice to the first item of listOfAirPlayNames
return AirPlayDevice
end tell
--code by @Caliguvara
You have to change the third line to second item, third item,… n times.
Only bugger for now, I return a variable, not a string, so the Widget won't be able to tell you if several AirPlay Devices are connected. More information in this MacTechNews.de discussion.
Script to connect to a desired AirPlay Device
tell application "iTunes"
set listOfAirPlayNames to (get name of every AirPlay device)
set chosenAirPlayName to the second item of listOfAirPlayNames
set current AirPlay devices to AirPlay device chosenAirPlayName
end tell
--code by @Caliguvara
Of course you have to change the third line to second item, third item in order to adjust them to their respective widget.
Take a look into it! Would be happy to hear your opinion about it 
Another question halfway OT - do you know a mail program that works with apple script? My idea is to use the email notifications of Folivora to display notifications from the community in the Touch Bar without spamming my main mail app…
