Re: Power Test results Hard-reset 24 Hour period 29 Jan 1938hrsPST - 30 Jan 1939hrsPST 2007

Good evening all,

The results are in, on immediate power up with minimal delay to get to the
settings and power panel, the unit was sitting at 90% remaining capacity.
After 20 seconds on, it dropped to 88%, at 2 mins on, no other apps or utils
running unit at 86%

To recapp:

 Age: I've had this unit since May 04, after a hard reset last night 1938hrs
PST with the backlight set to mid-point between high intensity and
powersave.

The results were:

surface voltage on immediate start-up was indicating 90% remaining charge,
after 20 seconds in idle 88%
after 2 mins 86%

Hope this helps.

Jod
