Hi. I find if i am using blue tooth I get very little out of my charge, however with regular headphones it seems to last a long time. It also seems to last longer for me if the book sense isn't reading a document with the text to speech option. In NLS, or MP3 formats I get more out of acharge.

I wonder if the speaker at volume 21 uses more or less than headphones.  I
wonder how bluetooth versus hardware headphones impact battery.

I don't see why it should matter which format you are using. I imagine the
main consumer of energy is the speaker. I was reading an NLS book on the
speaker and the volume was at 19 or 20, I for get which, but it was most of
the way up.

Do you suppose it matters which format you are using--MP3, DAISY, .txt?

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%.

ok, I'll chime in too -- my booksense also charges to 10, but it doesn't

stay there very long, IMO

I've had my booksense almost a year and mine always goes to 10 when I
charge

it.

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.
