--- Comment #3 from TraceyC <kde...@tlcnet.info> ---
The widgets only show the information sent by the device. If that's sent
incorrectly, the UI will reflect that.
I tested with 2 bluetooth devices on Plasma 6.2.5 and git-master. These are the
power levels I saw, they are correct, and match:

6.2.4
1. Sony WF-1000XM4
Bluetooth: 90%
Battery: 90%

2. Arteck keyboard
Bluetooth: No power level shown
Battery: 39% 

git-master (a few minutes later)
1. Sony WF-1000XM4
Bluetooth: 80%
Battery: 80%

2. Arteck keyboard
Bluetooth: No power level shown
Battery: 39% 

This leads me to believe that there are a few variables here
- The device needs to support sending power information over both bluetooth and
power separately
- It needs to send the correct information

To test the power information sent from your mouse over bluetooth use
bluetoothctl:
1. Get your mouse's MAC address from System Settings - Bluetooth
2. On command line type in  this, after "info", type in the first few
characters of the MAC address and press TAB to complete it
bluetoothctl info <TAB>

Look for a line that says "Battery". If there is one, let us know what it says.

Another way to get battery information from the device is from upower:

1. Get the device name with 
upower -e

e.g. my earbuds are 
/org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/headset_dev_AC_80_0A_08_3B_7B

2. Use this command with the device path e.g.
upower -i /org/freedesktop/UPower/devices/headset_dev_AC_80_0A_08_3B_7B

For my earbuds I see this, which corresponds to the level shown by the battery
widget;
    percentage:          80%

If you see this, let us know what it says. 

Thanks!
