The current implementation of the battery level/state properties are returning the stored values from the BroadcastReceiver. Android introduced a way to query the value using the BatteryManager starting in 21 (level) and 26 (state).
Android docs:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/BatteryManager.html#BATTERY_PROPERTY_STATUS
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/BatteryManager.html#BATTERY_PROPERTY_CAPACITY
Currently the initial value is -1 and if the receiver wasn't called yet (e.g. timing or it was somehow removed) it won't update the values.
The new way should still return a fresh value because it reads it when your fetch the property.
Update
Battery level: since 21 is the current minSDK I removed the
if
and just use the new value.Test:
