There could be reasons for it such as having Bluetooth or wireless LAN
switched on.  But even at that, I wouldn't expect a battery to do that.

What I was told when I got my unit was to charge the battery a few times and
run it down so that it calibrated it properly.  I have two batteries and
have done this with both of them so that I get a fairly accurate reading.  I
have Bluetooth and wireless LAN switched on, and I find the life of the
batteries very good.  Perhaps I've been lucky for a change? (smile).


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

I've heard some have had the experience of fast drainage of braille sense
battery overnight, from 90 to 10 percent, I was told!

Cheers
