This happens to me if I remove the batteries before the double beep that announces the BP going to sleep. If I wait until after the double beep is heard, my settings are usually retained.

I think the documentation says that settings should be retained for 30 seconds or so. It probably takes about 10 to 15 seconds to change the batteries. Does anyone else have this problem?
