5x00 Hardware / 5x000 Battery Life
« on: July 08, 2004, 02:06:16 am »
First of if this is answered elsewhere forgive me and please point me in the right direction...
I was just wondering what people's experiences with the battery life of the 5x000.
I have a 5000d and my battery life is about an hour. I am using the latest cacko rom with the battery applet patches, but I get very inaccurate readings. However, at "some point" the z just switches off and I have to plug it in to get it going again.
My problem is that "some point" is about an hour. - and thats without my ambicom wireless card plugged in. Is this normal? I have a new battery coming and that may fix the issue, if it is an issue... (otherwise I have a handy spare!)
I just wanted to see what others are experiencing with battery life.
