Kathy, what happened to your mPower that you've had to send it back twice?

stories of brand new units having to go back twice already>

Hi, all! I'm Kathy Szinnyey, new to this list and very new to
my mPower BT. I' received my unit in early September and have not
gotten to use it much. I've had to send it back twice already and
am waiting for it to return after my second sending. I've come to
know the tech support folks pretty well! Sad smile.
I really am looking forward to having a healthy Braille Note Mpower
and learning a lot from you all.
A special shout-out to my home girl Terrie and to Gail Bryant (no,
Gail, you don't know me, but Gail Bryant was an alternative
name and alter-ego I gave myself when I was 11 years old; very
strange to find a real Gail Bryant on this list!)
Take good care, everyone!

Subject: Re: [Braillenote] Reason for calibrating the battery on the BN
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!
