I've noticed that my P900 starts to warn that the battery is low when it is 67%. This sounds way too cautious - the battery is still 2/3 full!

Has anyone else seen this behaviour? Could it be a dodgy battery? (don't think so though because despite the warning everything still works fine all the way down to a few % battery left)

Or is it the P900 being intelligent and setting the warning trigger based on previous usage? i.e. if you use it a lot then the warning comes earlier, because it is likely you will be using the battery up more quickly.

Did you allow your battery to charge for 14 hours or so for the first time? There was a Esato member that had a similar problem - he/she only charged the battery initially for about 2 hours. I did three full charges and discharges for my battery and all is well so far.

@Jah, Pachy

There was a previous thread about this, but I think it was me who started it

. I created this new thread to see if anyone has had this problem since (at the time noone else had seen this problem).
