Garmin and Bryton

[Bristolian]

Hi folks,

Does anyone here use a Bryton Gardia R300L radar/light with a Garmin 530 (or any other) head unit? I have this combination and find that the Garmin reports that the radar has low battery when the Bryton app (on my iPhone) says it still has 50% left and then the head disconnects from the radar when it thinks the battery is nearly dead (but the app says it still has 40%).

Has anyone else experienced this?

I know that having the radar doesn't mean I don't have to look behind me to see what's happening, but it gives so much notice of something coming up behind it means I can choose when I look based on how close the vehicle is behind.

I'm going to hazard a guess that somewhere in the garmin settings that there's a setpoint to trigger an alarm if light battery goes below setpoint.

Hi oxoman, I have had a look around but can't find anything like that. I'll have another look
