I'm working on a BLE "things tracker" that e.g. warns when your keys (with an attached BLE transponder) fall out of your pocket. I was wondering if there are any APIs that expose current/recent/etc. power consumption of the Bangle.js 2?
The power consumption for the watch talks about some rough figures, according to this page these might have been obtained by directly measuring the chipset/battery power draw with a multimeter or similar?
If there is no built-in API what would be the best/easiest way to get insight into power usage of the chipset while trying various scanning options/approaches?
I would rather not pick my Bangle apart, but I have a puck/couple Pixel.js-es lying around, was thinking maybe these could work as a proxy? Are they sufficiently similar? Any tips are welcome!
