Hi Vicky, I thought recalibration occurred when one charges the battery after the battery critical message? In otherwords, one can calibrate manually, but I didn't think it was necessary if one ran the battery down to critical and then charged. So if I'm correct, haven't you already calibrated your battery? BTW, the problem with missing dots in a couple of cells on my braille display, while still occurring on occasion when the unit first returned, has been great now for almost a week. I'm very pleased and appreciative of the work that HW did on my unit.

Although, I don't normally keep cards in the unit, just use them for a bit and then readily remove them. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joseph Lee" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "'Braillenote List'" <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, October 02, 2006 10:11 PM Subject: RE: [Braillenote] last measured discharge with the mPowerbatterymodification Vicky, Mine says last measureed at 1631 with the designed capacity of 1650. If you have some cards/devices that draws more power, than this might be the issue. Try recalibrating and see what it can come up with it. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Vicky Collins Sent: Monday, October 02, 2006 7:04 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: [Braillenote] last measured discharge with the mPower batterymodification Hi All, As I've mentioned before, I fairly recently received my mPower back from HW after getting the modification done to fix the battery problems already discussed on this list. And, my mPower does indeed seem to be working much better in that regard now--going down to a level of zero per cent when I do the o chord p, and giving me the battery low and critical messages for a much longer time before shutting off. Well, actually, I've never let the mPower shut off, as I didn't want to re-establish my ActiveSync partnership and all; but, rather, when the power got to zero, and the nominal available charge got to eight or so, I would then plug in the AC adapter. But, as for my question, I'm just trying to see if the rest of you who received the battery modification are experiencing the same thing with the last measured discharge. When I first got the mPower back, it was showing me a last measured discharge of 1646 with a design capacity of 1650. Then, after the first discharge and recharge, it was showing a last measured discharge of 1526 with the same design capacity of 1650. And, now that I've had the second discharge and recharge, it is now showing a last measured discharge of 1483 with that same design capacity of 1650. Not complaining here at all, just wanting to confirm that this drop in last measured discharge is normal. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
