The cf card does not draw much power (a wifi card will, but a
regular cf storage card should not take that much power). I
agree that a recallibration is most certainly in order. What
happens when he goes to the options menu, presses space-i, then
presses a? If he hears something like "gauge is inaccurate.
Error: plus or minus 5%" then a recallibration should be
performed.
Have a great day,
Alex

Hi don,

Even though fully charged before leaving home, the unit, within
only 2 or 3 hours is down to 50 per cent and starts giving
"battery critical" warnings. Long before finishing his work,
the
power percentage is into single figures and he feels he dare not
use it. Even after the "battery critical" warnings, the unit
continues to work satisfactorily, but appears to be losing
charge
far too quickly. He does keep a cf card in the machine, and
needs to for his work. He has tried all the available resets.
The CF card will draw power when inserted; ask him to try to
minimise the
use of it until needed, by using the internal Flash drive
temporarily.
The rest of the symptoms sound for all the world like a battery
calibration is in order. The manual has instructions. Make sure
no cards
are inserted when you begin the process. For automated
calibrations, the
unit can't be used while calibrating.
Cheers,
Sabahattin
