@Dan-Jennings Honestly, I don't think updating the SDK version will help this issue. But, we highly encourage everyone to be on the latest SDK, regardless, since that's where you'll get the latest fixes and features. And it's how you'll get the best support from us. but in this case I don't think a newer SDK will get you the battery_status. It's probably a hardware issue or a parameter issue. You swapped boards and that didn't help. What about the cable? Those 4 wire cables are notoriously fragile. Can you swap it out and see if that helps? The other item is parameters. You saw that other post about setting BATT_MONITOR to 21 and BATT_I2C_BUS to 1. If you don't see the BATT_I2C_BUS parameter then it must mean that BATT_MONITOR hasn't been set to 21. Make sure it is set to 21, then reboot, then you should see the BATT_I2C_BUS parameter. Then set it to 1, reboot, then you should see correct battery_status.
