Ill see what I can do to provide a preset that is available for all. Might have it up in its own thread today...
Link to available preset...
hi there trying to use your code but the battery information isn't displaying properly (some of it is cut off) what setting do I need to change (basically need to wrap text)
Using my code or my preset? Post a screen shot of the output you are seeing. Wraping text output is in the code, maybe you removed the carriage returns.
ive imported the airpod pro preset, haven't touched the code having that issue where there is extra values included. might be an issue using non-pro AirPods?
Hi,
I've installed the button and replaced the three instances of AIRPODS_NAME_HERE with my own AirPods name but it doesn't do anything. The button on the TouchBar has 'false' next to the icon and doesn't do anything when I press it?
Hey, I really don't understand how to install a json file 
Could you please do a tutorial?
I didn't do this in years I'm not even sure I remember how to 
when you visualize your presets in BTT, with the button "import" can you select and therefore import a .json?
This widget doesn't seem to work on Big Sur anymore.. Even when my AirPods are connected the widget shows as "not connected". Did anyone else experience this issue? And can someone suggest a solution?
I'm having similar issues - when looking through the script I am using, it specifically looks for bluetooth menu options for connect and disconnect. On Big Sur, those options are no longer there - rather you just click on the headphones you want to connect to.
I'm assuming this is part of what is causing the issue, but unfortunately do not know how to fix it.
Try this widget. It works flawless and needs way less setup 
I did, and it works, but it doesn't let me set my own icons, which is basically why I was using this widget. Any ideas how I can set my own icons for this?
You'll have to encode them in base64 and put them in the script. You know how to do this?
I managed to encode them but I don't know where in the script to put them. Can you help out? 
And is there an option to have an alternative icon based on the connection status, or is it always the same?
Totally forgot about them, sorry!
Try this script. It's a modified version of what @Noon_Chen did, this one just checks for the AirPods Pro.

Make sure BTT has your AirPods Name saved as string_variable "AirPodsWg_DevceName" (or correct the line in the Script)
