Max TX Power NimBLE::getPower() vs esp_ble_tx_power_get()

[thekurtovic]

Hello,
Does NimBLE arbitrarily use +9 dBm (ESP_PWR_LVL_P9) as the maximum TX power, or is this based on some specifications from Espressif?
I'm working with an ESP32-S3, and I was trying to pass ESP_PWR_LVL_P21 when specifying the TX power. It appears to work (i.e. ESP_OK) as I don't get the error message from line 376 in NimBLEDevice.cpp.

The confusion is coming from getPower() since the switch does not define any cases beyond +9 dBm.

If call esp_ble_tx_power_get() directly I can see that reported value coincides with the ESP_PWR_LVL_P21 enum value.
The datasheet for ESP32-S3 states that the RF power control range has a maximum 20 dBm.
Am I misunderstanding something, why doesn't NimBLE handle cases above ESP_PWR_LVL_P9?
Thanks

This is due to not updating the max for each different chip, just a matter of code change which will be addressed soon.
