I had some questions about my new SDS100's battery along the same lines, if nobody minds...
After a full charge on the in-box battery, how long should it be able to operate before the low battery message appears?
What is a good threshold voltage to put into settings->battery options->set battery low->set voltage ? it looks like min is 3200 and max is 3700 mv
Mine seems to take much longer to fully charge than it can stay on starting from a full charge.
I'm also looking for any tips about energy efficiency to make the full charge last longer.
I have settings->set battery-> set battery save on
Would the battery charge last longer if the radio scans fewer channels?
I'm sure lower spkr volume and dimmer display would also help, anything else?
I can't read the screen outside during the day at the brightest, might as well set it dim as possible.
What data will I lose if I don't power down or plug in to an adapter if all I'm doing is listening to the transmissions?
I probably need to buy spare batteries and a charger like the OP mentioned.
Thanks
