Hello all,

Usually when the older units showed 99 percent after being charged! I simply 
used my BN till I got it down to around ten percent.  I then did the 
calibration process till it ran down.  I then charged my battery in that unit 
and everything was fine.  The M-power will go to a hundred percent after the 
unit has been unplugged.  It takes care of calibration if the battery has been 
discharged too much so it is better in the newer units.  I'd say simply use 
your BN or M-power and you won't need to worry much about calibrating!
