[QUOTE="dotdotdot, post: 1629979, member: 280973"] One day I get 9% (or 17%, etc) battery life left on the keyboard (along with the death warning icon), the next, 100% good level. This happens with various brands, like running Duracells, a quality battery, so that's not it (real ones bought from a B&M facility). Has been going on since new. I get about 6 months life out of the batteries, so that meter is just about useless. Mouse meter seems to be accurate, oddly. Also, the level is written in grayscale, not sure if that's of any significance. [/QUOTE]
