Quote:Low Power

When you are operating from battery power and the batteries get low, a raised decimal is turned on at the far left of the display to warn you that you have between 1 minute and 25 minutes of operating time left.

Ahh, okay. I was wondering if that's what it might be, but couldn't find that paragraph in the manual. Thanks.

Strange, the batteries are freshly charged, as far as I can tell. I wonder if there's an issue with the charge-level-sense circuit. I'll keep running it and see what happens.
