This is great to see this effort to update this for new weather APIs! I especially like the idea of using the NWS API in US locations.

How exactly are you personally using the remote sync of the battery feature? I think it’s interesting but I’d be curious if you have a use case for why you built it.

Nicely done! Very solid upgrade.

I wanted a way to get the charge state and % into Home Assistant so I could track battery life as well as create automations such as notification for when I need to charge my watch. This was really helpful for my older Pebble Time that only lasted a couple days and now with my new Core 2 Duo I want to see how long it lasts on a single charge.

I currently have it post to Node-RED which then creates the entities in Home Assistant. Here is the flow I use:

It looks like this:

This all started as a GitHub issue on my other Home Assistant WS app: Syncing health/battery data to Home Assistant · Issue #4 · skylord123/pebble-home-assistant-ws · GitHub

Was looking into ways to get health & battery data into HA and figured a watch face was the best approach with the current limitations. Haven’t added health data yet as I am just playing around with battery as a proof-of-concept.
