Support for Logitech MX Master Mice

That made me wonder: is BTT also able to detect the battery status of connected mice and keyboards? It would be useful for a notification letting me know it’s time to recharge them.

With BTT 6.021 you can query the Battery State via BTT's Java Script. Here is an example that gets the battery state and saves it to variable "mxmaster_battery":

async function getLogitechBattery() {
    const result = await logitech_get_battery_status({ deviceName: "MX Master" });
    await set_number_variable({variableName: "mxmaster_battery", to: result.level});
    return result;
}

You can then use that variable however you like, for example this preset shows a HUD with the battery state when pressing ctrl+opt+cmd+D:
logitech_battery.bttpreset (3.7 KB)

You could also have a time based trigger that checks e.g. once per hour and uses an if condition to check whether the battery is below a specific percentage - and only then shows the HUD.
