I’m using a Shelly gen 3 device as a bluetooth proxy to monitor, among other things, a SwitchBot thermometer / hygrometer. I learned recently, after the device went dead, that the battery status is only reported when the Shelly device is set to Active bluetooth scanning instead of Passive. My understanding is that this will have an impact on the power consumption of the SwitchBot bluetooth device, and potentially other bluetooth devices in range of the Shelly.
Is that true? Is the power consumption effect likely to be significant?
