Arlo Pro - Charging Status

[Townsmcp]

Has anyone been able to the power status of Arlo Pro cameras when plugged in to charge?

I’m basically wanting to setup a new piston, and use tiles/piston state to say when the camera is plugged in charging. The final thing I will want to do is sent a notification when the batter is at 100% so I know when to go remove the power cord, but it would be nice to be able to see a piston state saying it is charging. The notification to say 100% battery I reckon I can do but I’m just not sure what category to monitor that will show it is charging. I tried setting up a simple piston earlier and tried playing with different options, switching power on and off, changing variable to dynamic etc but no joy

How often does the battery report changes when charging?

I’ve only plugged it in to do some testing with the above testing - it came with 100% charge last week so not 100% sure. History in the ST app showed battery level jumped from 78% to 82% without reporting anything in between

Here’s one way to do it… compare last value with current value, if going up then it’s charging.
