I also discovered another nuisance last night.
If I use the rig whilst on an external supply, the dratted empty battery
case still appears to be drawn upon, meaning that I drain the internal cell.
I am not amused.
I've gone back to charging the 2600ma cells in a seperate charge, and then
when I want to use it I have to take out the supplied batt pack and insert the
cell case with the 2600ma's in. Grrr..
