Strange problem I have with Philips Hue, I have bought new batteries but still I get low battery warning. I have tried two brand new CR2450 but still get this low warning! Anyone with same issue? Is this a bug? I’m using Philips hue, without the bridge app ---

I am curious as well, I have four of them stating 32%. One of them has a brand new battery but also states 32%. Using Hue without the bridge also. ---

Dimmer switch no battery state at all, even not the battery type. Using no Hue bridge actually. When I started before a few weeks with Hue Bridge eveything is shown, type and load of battery. The battery load of the Hue Motion Sensors seems to work. Only battery type is missing since some days. Maybe since Homey Update 12.3.1, but I’m not sure ---
