YesThe older display showed the main and range extender as two side-by-side bar graphs of green and blue or blue and green.
Not as two % values.

Pathfinder Sport. If I decide to go full tubeless I'll consider the Pros, but that won't be until next year's riding season at the earliest.A question: What tyres are installed on your SL? If these are not Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss, I recommend an instant swap.
The top tube display on my 2021 does exactly that, did that change with the 2022 model?The older display showed the main and range extender as two side-by-side bar graphs of green and blue or blue and green.
It's 4.5 bar on the pavement, and 3.5 bar on my "gravel" rides.Stefan - What psi (or bar) are you running your new Pathfinder Pro 2Bliss 38-622 tyres?

I think the integrated value such as 150% that would appear in the display.The 120 screen configurations do not appear to include the separate display of internal and RE battery ... at least, it's not an option I'm offered via Mission Control. I suppose it's possible that the option might appear if I had a range extender battery, but I suspect not.
There is no separate level display for the RE. The "120 screen configs" is just a gimmick using combinatorics: there are several choices of screen layout selecting the number of fields and relative sizes, then for each field there are X different parameters that can be displayed and they just multiply them out. 120 is mildly impressive, but if you did the same for a Garmin Edge, I would think that the result would be several thousand!The 120 screen configurations do not appear to include the separate display of internal and RE battery ... at least, it's not an option I'm offered via Mission Control.

AFAIK it is the Bluetooth but not ANT+ that is encrypted. Wahoo/Garmin use ANT+ to connect to e-bikes.@Stefan Mikes About the Wahoo display of separate numbers, I wonder if this works on the newer bikes that are using the encrypted protocol that is not available to third-party apps & devices. If it were part of the standard "public" e-bike protocol it seems like it would be displayable by other devices.
FYI, my Edge 1030+ also uses BT to connect to sensors that support BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy). The most recent Garmin speed sensor that I bought broadcasts both ANT+ and BLE, as does my Polar Verity Sense heart monitor (and my Wahoo Kickr trainer). Of course, Specialized may or may not implement BLE for selected signals.AFAIK it is the Bluetooth but not ANT+ that is encrypted. Wahoo/Garmin use ANT+ to connect to e-bikes.
Hey, but you can just turn your SL on and connect your 1030+ to see.FYI, my Edge 1030+ also uses BT to connect to sensors that support BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy).

The Paolo's message on another Forum: "GAME IS OVER".Maybe Stefan can buy Paolo an ant enabled phone for development purposes.
ANT+ is a broadcast protocol. There is no "connection" per se, and any number of devices can simultaneously be receiving the same signal. However, in the case where a device can be controlled by ANT+, such as light networks, only one controlling device, such as a Garmin Edge, can be connected.My garmins automatically detect and ask to connect to the ebike's ant sensors. Makes it very easy to set up with a new bike as I did when doing my demo rides. So that read only data is readily accessible. That raises the question whether an ant enabled phone could then connect to the sensors. Looks like android play store has at least one ant + bike computer app, tho it does not show any ebike specific data fields. If Blevo were to be modified to include adding ant sensors, an ant enabled phone running read only Blevo would be a worthy consideration for a bike computer. Maybe Stefan can buy Paolo an ant enabled phone for development purposes. Or lend one of his ebikes to the android app developer.
Unfortunately, the SRAM shifter on the 5.0 does not work that way.Despite owning my Vado SL 4.0 EQ for six months now, I only just discovered that the Shimano Deore Rapidfire Plus gear lever has “2-way release” which means, to change up, you can either pull on the lever with your index finger or push with your thumb. Changing down requires pushing the other lever with your thumb. This is mentioned at the very end of the EBR video review.
SRAM and Shimano are a way different in this respect.Unfortunately, the SRAM shifter on the 5.0 does not work that way.
My road bikes have always had Shimano 105 components, so I've never been able to try out the "double-tap" SRAM drop-bar shifters, which are quite different. At least with the flat-bar controls their basic operation is the same.SRAM and Shimano are a way different in this respect.
