Please don't follow this road and drop Solaar.
It is very well working for me, even the older Logitech devices can be monitored for battery power, for multiple devices etc. It has a very nice, great working app in KDE5 working in all flavors of openSUSE etc.
It would be really a waste of goodness to drop it. Really!
Hello Ralf! I have a number new Logitech devices and the power monitor in solaar does not show anything even close to true values (neither Plasma power monitor). But if it works well with old hardware then I take back what I have said. Sorry! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Created attachment 823775 [details] Selective screenshot of Solaar with newest Logitech device I have showing battery status
This is a screenshot of Solaar with my newest Logitech device I have at hand, a K400plus.
I haven't seen any problems with Logitech devices over the last years with Solaar. Only the really old receivers with PS2 connectors are not recognized because the kernel is not yet extended for these old ones.
Not sure if the ltunify might cause your problems offering somehow similar options but AFAIK has not such a nice KDE5/plasma interface as shown in the screenshots Solaar can offer.
Ralf, the problem is not lack of battery information but the fact that these values are just not true. For my K780 keyboard solaar always shows 90% but the battery is more than a year old so this is not true as (verified on Windows). For my M720 mouse I have random values like 5, 20 or 10 percent. Each time you connect this mouse you got different value. The hope is on the kernel side: see here https://news.softpedia.com/news/linux-kernel-5-2-to-come-with-improved-suppo... So, yes solaar gives you something but are you sure these values make any sense? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I have also MX Vertical but after experiences with the other devices I did not even try to use solaar with it. Sorry, it is not useful here. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
