[Question] Pro Micro NRF52840 LED charging behaviour. #75

Closed Finnitio closed 4 months ago

Finnitio commented 4 months ago

Hey, could not find any other resources. Does anybody know the charging behaviour of the LED? It goes from solid to blinking, to off I think. But I do not know what that means? I also do not know why zmk gives 0 % charge over bluetooth but the keyboard still works for many days till the circuit shuts the battery off.

It doesn't go to blinking it's just on when charging and off when it's done. It blinks only if there's no battery. Measuring charging by voltage is often innacurate, last time I tried battery shuts off at 2.4V and ZMK may consider that below 0%. See https://github.com/joric/nrfmicro/wiki/Batteries about batteries.

Anothe question, i noticed that when i try to charge my left side the whole keyboard does not work anymore. But for the right side it does noch affect the behaviour at all?

Separate halves should charge just fine, it should not affect the wireless link.
