All very subjective stuff Steve, personally not that it means anything at
all, I like the Braille cells, and find them pleasant to read for long
periods of time, but, as I say, that's of absolutely no use to anyone
really!

Hi,

Can't agree with you there, I think the cells feel cheap, almost like dymo
tape, I don't like the Braille on it at all.

All the best

Steve

Totally hear you mate, when it works it's a lovely ppeace of kit, but, it

Hi Terry

The unit is recharging even as I write this message. I did think it a bit
strange that the percentage was showing 100 when I got the Focus on Friday.
It switched itself off when it reached 76%. I recharged it overnight and all
seemed fine. I put it on to charge last night and the figure shot almost
within seconds to 100%. Also it seemed to take longer than I expected for
the charging indicator to show itself. I am hoping that this time I will get
a full charge and that things will start working as they should. I like
using the Focus 14. However, as things stand, it is probably the most
unreliable piece of equipment I have ever come across and I would be loath
to recommend it to anyone who is looking for a Braille display.

Hi!
Never seen this one on the focus before but I have known of similar 
calibration issues with other devices.
So what happens if you charge the focus up to maximum, so the 
indicator says %100.
Then run it all the way down, then go through the cycle again.
If the problem is a calibration issue rather than a false indication 
problem, that should sort it out.

Hi
Well, I have my replacement Focus and have a problem. The battery 
usage indicator seems to be indicating a false percentage. For 
example, the battery is exhausted but when I power on, the percentage 
shown is 80%. This means that the battery will die without giving me a 
low battery warning. Has anyone had this problem and is there anything 
I can do about it? Could I be moving on to my fourth Focus 14 since 
last
October?
