Ken's plot is extremely valuable. It strongly suggests battery failure,

Dear Gould / ARISSat-1 team,
Thanks for sharing this !
When the battery would go dead (or has very long charge times),
to what extend would that also impact the low power mode ?
Better phrazed: what are the requirements to go/stay in low power mode ?
Is there a (no power) mode, where there
Hi Clint,
The battery can run ARISSat-1 for about 6 days on
the ISS so it will still be almost fully charged
if they run it for just 1 day.
Once it is deployed, the solar panels will charge
the battery.

One small consolation is that if the ISS crew can't get it working before
tossing it into space, it could (possibly) be brought back to Earth on a
future return trip to be diagnosed

Hi Bob all..
As far as I can see, the main reason it needs power is to allow the
transmitter to stay in the OFF state during deployment and for 15
minutes after release, once it switches ON the battery can be depleted
without any adverse effects.
This was talked about here on -bb a few weeks

Dear Friends,
There has been a great deal of speculation on the amsat-bb about
the Russian battery on ARISSat-1 having failed. Be aware that this
is nothing other than idle speculation. There has been no
information from RSC-Energia to support this.
I believe the mis-information comes from a
