What battery chemistry is 5V ? or does it have a regulator in the pack ?

Aha - that did it. Keeping the battery on charge at the same time did
the trick (although manufacturer states that charging and draining the
battery at the same time is not the best thing to do).
The battery was giving 5.11v by the way.
I assume the Touch needs to draw a slightly higher voltage

6V is actually pretty common -

But perhaps a proper regulated supply would be best of all. They seem to

Battery is 5V. I've not measured it though.
Not tried having it 'on charge' at the same time - will do now.

Was this off load not being charged, Off load being charged, on load not
being charged or on load being charged ?

The touch may take more current on startup which will cuase the

How many trials? 70/30 is pretty easy to achieve by random unless you
had a
I have a Touch that's been running happily for a few years now - best
with the TT3 software tweaks in my opinion. But thought I'd try a
battery PSU.
This has worked in the past but this week it just won't start.
The PSU is essentially a mobile phone charger rated at 5V / 2.4amps

Not just nominal but actual - have you measured the battery voltage? Did
you try to power up the Touch with the charger connected?

What chemistry is your battery? Does your PSU have a regulator between
the battery and the Touch? This is why it is a good idea:
