Varia battery status in %

Is there any way to show Varia battery status in % ?

OK - is not the most practical variant. Many times I had ok and after 20-30min got LOW. Several times it died during the ride.

P. S. - the same with other Garmin sensors

For Sensor batteries there is no display in %.

There are only 5 states or bars, which stand for:

-New (even for rechargeable batteries)
-Good
-OK
-Low
-Critical

The 1000km figure is from Shimano, I don't know how they calculate it. I haven't taken much notice of my mileage so don't know how far off it is.

I disagree on the non-linear scale. If I see 3 out of 5 bars on the battery I expect to have 50%-60% of my battery left, not as low as 26%. Having only slightly more than a quarter of battery left, while the display is showing more than half makes no sense.
