I have never been able to figure out how accurate those numbers are on any of these battery systems. My Book Sense will usually quickly drop to 9 when I am reading, but holds there for quite a while. Now my cell phone will give me 7 bars of power for an indefinite period of time and then, drops very suddenly. I just routinely put things on chargers after so much time. My Book Sense goes on its charger at night when I am reading, and I use it on battery during the day if I am reading.

That logic makes sense, but unlike others here, my unit seems to err on the high side. I had been reading for a bit over a half hour today and my battery was still at ten.

This really makes sense if you think about it. 10 means 100%. The very second you use any power at all, you're no longer at 100%, and therefore, no longer at 10. 9 is much more realistic. It means anywhere from 90% to 99%.

You know, I've had my BookSense for 4 months and I've only had the battery go to 10 once and it was two nights ago when I plugged it into the USB on my computer. I've charged my BS all night plugged into the wall and the higher it's ever gotten was 9. I've had hours and hours of reading without charging and it's been perfect, but I'm sort of curious about this as well.

No matter how long I charge my Booksense--two weeks was my last try--the battery level is reported to be 9, never 10. I removed the battery to reset the unit, thinking that something--well--needed to be reset. Now, off the charger for ten minutes, the battery level instead of being 9 is 8. Is there a way to correct this??? thanks for any suggestions. ann If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
