Feature request type

Enhance Battery Reporting Time to allow devices longer times before reporting and not set to default value, specifically for Samsung Smartthings Devices

Description

Smartthings devices connected to Deconz have a very fast battery drain.

This appears to be because they are reporting too frequently and the minimum change interval is set to low compared to Samsungs documentation.

Considered alternatives

No alternatives whilst using Deconz.

Additional context

When using Deconz, Smartthings devices report battery too frequently causing drain on the battery and therefore reduced battery life.

The problem seems to be that if the configured reporting is more than 1.5 times the original value that reporting is reset back to default values.
