read battery level #9

Is there any chance we can read the battery level?

I don’t think that information is available. I just went through all the information (the "characteristics") offered via Bluetooth again, and apart from the things that the script already gets, there are only things like model name, firmware version and also the current time, so everything that’s interesting is already retrieved.

Since the battery level isn’t available via the app (or have you found it anywhere?), it is quite possible that the device itself doesn’t track the battery level.

I went trough the charactristics as well and could not find anything, but it must be possible somehow as it is shown in the app!

marcelm commented 3 years ago

Where do you see that? I couldn’t find it in the app.

Ah, you have the Wave Plus. That’s probably why you see the battery level. I only have the regular Wave, and it doesn’t show this in the app.
