Ikea TRÅDFRI switch/dimmer does not show battery status, it did it before. I have tried to repair the devices without any luck. Does anyone know how to fix it?
The IKEA battery status is very inaccurate, they probably removed it.
What do you mean exactly? Is the battery icon missing completely, or is only an empty battery with a question mark displayed, like this one?
Hmm, at first I thought, no way. Then I looked at the relevant flow cards of the TRADFRI Wireless Dimmer Switch in the Homey App Store and found out, that there is no “When…” flow card available which reacts to a change in battery level.
However, I don’t know if such a flow card ever existed.
I should have attached the pictures off course, it looks like this where you see the tile and the status:
It’s not implemented unfortunately…
That looks different… ![]()
Are you sure? What makes you think so?
Why is the battery symbol displayed?
Because I was looking into the code… not sure if it was exactly this device but saw for many it doesn’t work. However it’s Athom developed app so maybe submit them a ticket.
I would also recommend contacting Athom Support, @Felix_oslo. I would be interested to hear their response.
I have already done that, can send the answer here when it comes
