4 years ago After it finally warmed up and the official app lists the temp at 30°C, and now it returns [30,30]. So, the 0'th element of the array is the correct number.
I looked through the forums and people almost always list battery temperatures in 5°C increments. So, I think the BMS only reports temperatures in those increments. What I haven't found yet is if the BatteryTemp is ever updated after start. It is a bad time of year to be looking into this, as the temperature is ranging around room temperature.
BatteryTemp only returns on start for me, and always returns the array
[25,30]for me. Does it every return anything else for you? Also, I think the 0'th element of the array is what you are supposed to use, not the 1st element. The official OW app says my battery is 25°C, not 30°C. So this part may be a tiny app bug inOWDevice.javaI am wondering if maybe I broke my sensor when installing my Two-X, because I am charging it now, and still it reports 25°C (77°F). I have never known a battery not to warm up at least a little when charging. If someone else ever gets something other than
[25,30]fromOnewheelCharacteristicBatteryTemp, I would be interested.I care because I wanted to lay down the framework for updating the results of battery remaining based on the temperature. I can use the controller temperature, which seems to be working, to estimate what the battery would be seeing. But, it seems like I would want to get it from the horses mouth, if I can.
