Couldn't find the RFCOMM port number. Perhaps the device is offline? about bluetooth_headset_battery_level HOT 6 OPEN

What Bluetooth device do you have?
Did you try the workarounds mentioned in the readme?

Getting same error, @TheWeirdDev I am using Bluetooth Headset

Command -
bluetooth_battery B4:0E:DE:95:7C:9C

it also happened to me. Im not entierly sure if this repo supports HCI bluetooth devices (another connection method similar to rfcomm).
To check you can run hcitool dev. Note that this command doesnt always work.

You can also use udevadm monitor and during this command dissconnect and reconnect the device.

In my case it was:
/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:14.0/usb1/1-7/1-7:1.0/bluetooth/hci0/hci0:256

@TheWeirdDev I'm running on this issue using a bluetooth keyboard Keychron K7, can you please help me, understand what I can do to fix either the script or find the out the battery level ?

Here is what I found out by using hcitool :

• Inquiry TX power, I don't think that's what I need, it's probably the power needed to send a bluetooth packet or something like that ??
• power control must mean that there could be a way to control the bluetooth device power from the host, I guess

Okay so I confirmed the battery level can be reported :
