When you go into support information mode and press the letter c, that number will change all the time. I mean, for example, as you have your unit turned on and unplugged, the value there will continue to drop as the battery is discharging. Although I'm using the PC for this message, I have my mPower sitting here, and the nominal available charge has dropped from 332 to 328 in the last couple of minutes. Further, in my case, I start getting the battery low message when the nominal available charge gets close to 120. Then, usually, the nominal available charge continues to decrease but then tends to stay at 107 for quite some time without changing, meaning at least five minutes. Then, at that point, I chicken out there and plug in the unit. And, oh, my battery level is at eight percent at this point, and has never gone below this eight percent unless the unit has shut itself completely off. Now, if I'm using speech to continuously read, or have a wireless card plugged in, then the battery level and nominal available charge tend to drop much more quickly. ----- Original Message ----- From: "rachael warke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Braillenote List" <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, April 15, 2006 8:23 AM Subject: Re: [Braillenote] power problems
Hi List, Thanks for the comments on this. When I go to support mode and press C, my number is 349, so I'm a little concerned, but the machine is working beautifully, so I'll just carry on for now. I'm dreading the time of sending it in for a new battery. I'm hopelessly addicted.
