Di2 Battery Level vs Gear Battery

RKey 5 months ago

Hello, sorry maybe this is a stupid question, but what should I use to track the battery level?

I've added DI2 as a sensor and now have two data fields:
Di2 Battery Level - the remaining battery power of a Di2 sensor.
Gear Battery - the battery status of a gear position sensor.

But they are showing the same information https://imgur.com/undefined

Fast googling and GPT provided me a controversial information. This page does not answer the question either: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=qBnD0bXiLT7g6qMyExVRc9

Thanks

Historically the Di2 battery just reported the Di2 battery and the Gear Battery reported only ANT+ shifting battery status.

Now they report the same information. The field dynamically switches to whatever system you are connected to. I think the Di2 battery data field was left so that people did not need to change their existing screens.
