One-sided confidence intervals are presented for the average of non-identical Bernoulli parameters. These confidence intervals are expressed as analytical functions of the total number of Bernoulli games won, the number of rounds and the confidence level. Tightness of these bounds in the sense of Buehler, i.e. as the strictest possible monotonic intervals, is demonstrated for all confidence levels. A simple interval valid for all confidence levels is also provided with a tightness guarantee. Finally, an application of the proposed confidence intervals to sequential sampling is discussed.
