I didn't realise that the K7 was similar, the K3 has been pretty consistent, I've now done quite a few shoots with 1300+ images captured on it and never depleted the battery fully. I had it lock up once when I had the OEM battery in the body and a 3Rd party in the grip but since I have changed to two OEM batteries it seems to be behaving, though that could just be coincidence.
