Hello, I've got this from asking internally: " The information should be accurate in both BAS and HIDPP interfaces. However, today the BAS interface is limited. Version 2.0 will be better but not yet released. As you have access to the HIDPP, I recommend using only this one. Like this, the type of connection can be ignored (BLE or USB dongle) "
As per the patch I just sent (HID: logitech-hidpp: Add Signature M650), it will unfortunately be difficult to disable the battery reporting directly from bluetoothd. We can detect whether a Bluetooth device supports HID++, as it has a GATT attribute with a Logitech specific UUID[1] (more info/specs welcome), but not all the HID++ capable Bluetooth devices seem to be detected by the kernel and they need to be added to a list. Ideally, the kernel could enable HID++ support for all the Bluetooth HID++-capable devices, and we could easily block reporting in upower or bluetoothd without having to care at runtime about whether there's a separate battery reporting interface because we could assume it was always there. Any ideas on how to do that?
