Battery is a possibility it was reading 57%.

DaveA
----------------------------------------

57% of capacity or 57% of voltage? If it's capacity (i.e. ampere-hours) it
does seem surprising to have let you down, but if it's voltage then it is
well past the time to change it. After all, you wouldn't expect to start a
car on a battery that was so clapped out that it only produced 7 volts
instead of 12.

Where in the manual is anything said about battery
life/remaining capacity vs. percentage shown?

One should expect that with 57 percent remaining capacity
you have 57 percent left in terms of operating time, until a
battery warning goes off.

Unles they say something different in their handbook,
according to europeen laws, which demand trhuthness in
manuals, the balll is in Scubapro#s field. They have to
explain why computers breakdown with a remaining life in the
50% region.
