I would like to suggest a small improvement regarding the telemetry view. Currently, the power consumption (Power) is displayed only in full Watts (e.g., 0 W), while the current (Current) is measured and displayed with high precision (e.g., -0.019 A).

Proposed change:
Increase the resolution of the power measurement to mW (milliwatts) or at least show decimal places (e.g., 0.0 W or XX mW).

Why?
This would make the telemetry much more readable and useful for low-power devices, where current values are small and full-watt rounding always shows zero.

Here is a screenshot showing the current behavior:

Best regards!
