Well…if you’ve been here for any length of time, you know that about a year ago I replaced the battery in my Sony mp3 player since the old one wouldn’t hold a charge anymore. So, in the past week or so the battery indicator has been showing me shorter and shorter use times, down to about three hours before getting the battery charge needed symbol on the display and I was starting to get a little irritated that the battery only lasted a year when the original lasted over 6 years….so, today, I thought I’d test it out and just see how long the thing really will run until it shuts off…well…6 1/2 hours and counting after the thing told me the battery was dead…and that is not counting the hour on the bike with the indicator flashing. So, needless to say there is a problem with the sensor, not the battery, but now I’m going to have to either keep it plugged in all the time or keep track of how long I’ve run it since it was charged…that sounds like a lot of work so I guess it’s plug in time….isn’t technology great?

7 hours and counting….8 hours….not sure how long I’m going to do this….
