title: Maximum number of characteristics in Bluetooth LE
body: <p>So we have a problem with a project of ours.</p>
  
  <p>We started a Bluetooth LE project, and made a list of UUID's and services.</p>
  
  <p>We develop on a bluegiga chip, which is capable of holding like 100 private characteristics.</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately the other party (hardware side) has chosen another chip. Now we are on a go for a few months and the hardware side just noticed it chose a chip with a maximum of 10 characteristics.</p>
  
  <p>So here we are, an almost finished app and an incompatible chip. </p>
  
  <p>So we are trying to look for a solution.</p>
  
  <p>There are three ways we can come up with:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Reprogram the app so it can handle more values per characteristic</li>
  <li>Cut functionality</li>
  <li>Choose a chip which is able to hold 100 characteristics</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>The second one isn't really an option. But we are trying to understand what to do now.</p>
  
  <p>So before we proceed we would like to know which option you think is the best way to choose. We would advice choosing another chip, but if people think 10 characteristics should be max we have to reprogram.</p>
  
  <p>Please tell us what you think of the situation. It would be great of help.</p>
