I once did a few experiments with a number of Bens and found that removing _all_ power for about 12 seconds reliably reset them: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/pipermail/discussion/2011-March/007432.html The 30 seconds suggestion adds a bit of tolerance for process or component variations. (In fact, I would have said 20 seconds but I couldn't find that posting before :) I don't use the battery much but I wouldn't be surprised if a weak/failing battery could keep the Ben in the zombie state for a very long time. - Werner _______________________________________________ Qi Hardware Discussion List Mail to list (members only): [email protected] Subscribe or Unsubscribe: http://lists.en.qi-hardware.com/mailman/listinfo/discussion
