Low bike battery warning - pointless

I created a post about this a while ago and it was marked as "answered" but it isn't and my Karoo gives low battery warnings when batteries still have over 45% remaining. Completely pointless and might as well be turned off - except that you can't turn them off.

  Hi All, 

  We’ve improved the behavior of the “Low Sensor Battery” alerts that appear on Karoo outside of rides. These alerts will now disappear if you acknowledge them or power down Karoo.

  Thank you!

  Yeah, first time it happened to me I panicked and swapped my front/rear batteries over, got home and realised there was still loads of charge...

  It would make sense if you could disable this feature, or better yet, be able to do so depending on the type of sensor you have. 
  
  I don't need my 'speed sensor' battery warning to stay on for 6 months cause the battery hit 25%

  Can you sort this out please Hammerhead as it's extremely irritating.

  I'm having the same issue. I am also getting low battery warnings for connected devices when the device is at only about 50% of battery life. This happens for all kinds of devices, SRAM AXS shifter batteries, Coros Vertex 2 watch, & my S-Works Turbo Creo internal battery. It is pretty annoying that the Karoo thinks the batteries in those devices is low when they really are not.

  @Shruti That’s great, but it still doesn’t really address the root issue, which is the Karoo 2 is triggering low battery alerts for devices when the battery isn’t truly “low”. A battery at 50% isn’t a low battery.

  You've marked this as completed but completely missed the point. It's all very well being able to dismiss the alerts (which should have been the case anyway) but the alerts appear when the battery in question is no where near flat. They are pointless and irritating.

  Hi, another disappointed user with this feature... Karoo alerts me about my turbo levo battery low, when it reaches 45%! It is totally unnecesary. We should have the ability to disable it, or better, to establish the percentage of the warning. Please consider this request. Thanks in advance!
