Expected battery charge length for jive beta hw

[gharris999]

How long are folks finding a battery charge lasts? What's a reasonable expectation here?

I'm not sure this is normal or if I'm just not very lucky, but I don't get very good battery life out of mine. If I take it off the cradle in the morning, it will be dead by the evening. It doesn't ever seem to enter a power save mode.

I should qualify the above statement by saying I haven't tried it in a while. I've been leaving it on the cradle most of the time now. Maybe I should pull it off and see if there is better power saving now. I'm interested in hearing what other folks are experiencing.

Cheers,

John

Power save will be much improved with the new kernel, which should come into the fold in the next few weeks. Stay tuned.

In the meantime, "shuck that jive" (i.e., put it in the cradle) when you leave the house. I've found that a latent feature of having to charge my Harmony remote is that I always know where it is when I need it :)
