COMPARISON
What the signals mean.
Bluetooth devices can appear in several different states. BatteryPulse keeps those states separate so the view stays useful and accurate.
| Signal | What it means | Does it prove battery data? | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paired | Device was paired to a system before. | No | Pairing does not guarantee a live active connection. |
| Connected | Windows currently reports the device as connected. | No | Battery visibility still depends on accessory support and platform APIs. |
| Nearby BLE advertisement | Device is advertising over Bluetooth Low Energy. | No | It may be in range without being paired or currently connected. |
| Battery percentage | Measured accessory charge level. | Yes | Currently not available in the present product release. |
