I currently have my wii remote connected to my Windows 10 x64 laptop, and have it recognized as a game controller (Julian Loer's gamepad drivers). Since it is Windows, and I am using python 3, cwiid is not availible.
I have been able to work around the issue, but the only problem I have is reading the battery level. When connected to my raspberry pi, I set the leds to show the battery percentage in binary, with 15 (1 + 2 + 4 + 8) being full.
Is there another way to read the battery level?
