School Boy Error

Reminds me, i best charge my pack up after last nights session.

I always put off charging it as soon as i come in as its going to be cold/dewwy and dont want to cause any possible damage. Does it make any difference? Only ask because normally i forget to charge it back up again lol.

I let mine go flat once and it's never worked properly since - sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Not to worry ... I think that is what has happened to mine

I last recharged the battery in January ... and then again last night (April). Doing a test now, it reads a maximum 15 volts. Next time there is a clear evening, I'll hook it up to the scope to see how long it lasts. We live and learn.

When i use my power tank, i recharge overnight. If i dont get a chance to use it, i charge it for 24 hours once a month. It becomes second nature after a while. Every month around the 21st/22nd.............i charge it for a full 24 hrs
