Hello,
since installing Battery Notes, the device icons in settings > devices are inconsistent:
In this image these two ZHA battery powered devices have been assigned two different icons.
Battery Notes is not really a device so I think it should be relegated to second place. Is there any way to edit this?
regards
Steve
There is a note about this on the GitHub page. According to the developer, HA assigns those icons at random and he hasn’t found a way to control it. You’re right, it’s annoying.

When a battery note is added for a device, the device's icon changes to the HA Battery Notes icon automatically. There's currently option to change this behaviour.
### Describe the solution you'd like
Having a global(?) setting related to the integration that allows the user to choose to retain the original device icon.
### Describe alternatives you've considered
Accepting this can't be changed :-)

Thanks’ - I updated the GH page with a comment that Unifi does not override my SONOS speaker’s icons where both integrations are active for those devices. Maybe there is a way.
Assign a device class in the UI or in customize, unless they don’t have unique_id assigned…
