The full stop condition for battery charged is when the constant voltage taper current drops below .12. I suspect you have some sort of cell defect that keeping the taper current above that. Next time you are using the machine stop powerd and run olpc-pwr-log in a terminal (you can use it normally) and let it run down until it powers off. Then remove the battery, power back up, run olpc-pwr-log again and then re-insert the battery. Let it charge until you see the got to 100 and the 3rd and 4th column of numbers reach some sort of steady state where they don't change much. Ctrl-C and then send me the file. FYI. Col 3 is voltage in uV and col 4 is amperage in uA. Also send me all the files you have in ~olpc/power-logs Thanks. -- Richard A.
