As Pamela said, if you're not using alkaline batteries, this is fairly typical behavior. I see this all the time with the lithium ion batteries that I use and don't worry about it. In fact, when the level starts reporting something different every time I press the buttons, I know that it's getting very close to time to change them. _____ From: bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:bookport-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Tataindi Sent: Friday, June 22, 2007 12:09 PM To: bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [bookport] battery level Hello, When I press d+f to verify battery level bp changes every time I give this command. For instance, first it said 20% and when I pressed again to be sure, it said 30%. Then I pressed again to confirm and said 50% and later another, etc. Is this normal when the battery is low, or does bp have any problem? Thank you, Tat
