Battery reporting and ST Arrival Sensor issue in 2.2.4

ok, now with debug logging enabled, please click refresh, also past a screenshot of the logs, vs copy paste, thanks.

I also checked other ST motion sensors - they are not reporting battery in logs either. This one just caught my eye because it went to zero a few days ago and when I changed the battery today it stayed at zero.

ok, i see what's going on.

It is fixed with 2.2.4.141! Thanks!

Down to 12% now. That was quick. I guess I'll just run it til it's dead. I think it beeps when low.

I replaced batteries in two of these Monday night (one read 0% after the hub update) and currently one of them sits at 60% and the other at 37%. I cannot believe these killed a battery in less than a week. Not that they are all that terrific to begin with, but this is ridiculous.

I really wish we could set reporting transmit interval and slow these down a bit. But that is a Samsung firmware decision that Hubitat cannot fix.

Do they indeed beep when the battery is near dead?

Never seen that happen in probably a year of owning them and dozens of battery changes.

Yeah, that was probably wishful thinking on my part.

2.2.4.142 is out, lots of battery updates:

Fixed battery reporting bug when battery is replaced on:

  • Bosch Zigbee Motion
  • Generic Zigbee Contact Sensor
  • Generic Zigbee Moisture Sensor
  • Generic Zigbee Motion Sensor
  • Generic Zigbee Contact No Temp
  • Generic Zigbee Motion Humidity Sensor
  • Generic Zigbee Motion No Temp
  • Philips Hue Motion
  • Smart Sense Humidity

Alas, no st arrival sensor, lol.

Replaced battery at the first (bottom) entry.

Falling faster than..

Interesting that it went to exactly 37%, just like mine. Next stop for you: 12%.

My other one is staying (not sure if stuck) at 62 percent, just like yours. Can't be a coincidence?

Collusion. Common among batteries from the wrong side of the diode.

It was the Chinese (battery) and not the Russians this time.

They're the scariest...they'll smile at you while they make their evil plots. I know, I used to date a woman from China, and she was way too smart for me and ran rings around me like I was an inanimate object. :wink:

Well, the latest update, (it updates every 12 hours), is 0%, lol.

This is more entertaining than the Indy 500. :wink:
