Hi Jessica, while it doesn't sound very intuitive, I believe that
in fact leaving any BrailleNote on and allowing it to enter the
hibernate mode will draw exactly the same amount of power as if
the unit were switched off. Even if you switch off the power, the
BrailleNote simply goes into a sleep mode. While in this mode it
can still be woken up by things, the main one being alarms, and
background processes still run. To truly "turn off" the
BrailleNote so that no power is used, you'd want to put the
BrailleNote into sleep mode, which on the Apex can be done
through the Utilities/Miscellaneous menu, and on the mPower in
the Support Information Mode.
Best,
Grant

Actually, Any type of bn will shut down after 10 minutes of not
being used. It is not just the apex that does this. Also it will
only shut down if it is battery powered. Plugging in the ac
adapter disables the shut off timer and the bn will just stay on.

Hi listers.
When I take my apex off the charger at night, it drains to about
87 percent.
Why is this?
And how could I stop it.
Thanks.
