AquaTouch - Unable to run Bluetooth AppleScript in BTT, but works in script editor

Bug Reports

Unable to run a certain AppleScript in BTT, but it seems to run fine in the macOS Script Editor.

It does use IOBluetooth, so i'm wondering if that's the problem.

To test the script, assign the exact name of a bluetooth device to BTT variable "AirPodsWg_DevceName"

Here's a test preset:
AquaTouch AirPods Test v2.bttpreset (237.5 KB)

Here's the script:

use framework "IOBluetooth"
use scripting additions

set widgetVariable to "AirPodsWg_DevceName"
set resetAction to "Reset AirPods Widget"

tell application "BetterTouchTool"
	try
		set LclAirPodsName to get_string_variable widgetVariable
	end try
	
	if LclAirPodsName is missing value or LclAirPodsName is "" then
		tell application "BetterTouchTool" to trigger_named resetAction
	else
		return my connectAirPods(LclAirPodsName, widgetVariable)
	end if
end tell

on connectAirPods(LclAirPodsName, widgetVariable) --Connect AirPods Function
	tell application "BetterTouchTool"
		try
			set LclAirPodsName to get_string_variable widgetVariable
		end try
	end tell
	
	try
		-- Get Device
		repeat with dev in (current application's IOBluetoothDevice's pairedDevices() as list)
			if (dev's nameOrAddress as string) contains LclAirPodsName then set device to dev
		end repeat
		
		-- Toggle Device Connection
		if not (device's isConnected as boolean) then
			device's openConnection()
			return (device's nameOrAddress as string) & "
Connecting..."
		else
			device's closeConnection()
			return (device's nameOrAddress as string) & "
Disonnecting..."
		end if
		
	on error
		
		----------------- error "connection" alert window ---------------
		tell application "BetterTouchTool" to display dialog "Bluetooth Widget could not find your device \"" & LclAirPodsName & "\".
- Make sure it is paired, then try again
- Reset widget and check device name" with title "Bluetooth Widget" with icon note buttons {"Reset Widget", "OK"} default button "OK"
		
		----------------- error "connection" alert window ---------------
		
		if the button returned of the result is "Reset Widget" then
			tell application "BetterTouchTool" to trigger_named resetAction
		else --if window pressed OK
			return
		end if
	end try
	return
end connectAirPods
