Maestro-C Battery Charging

in Maestro

I charge the battery inside the Maestro, not with an external charger. The battery indicator does not now go above 96%. It used to read 100%. Is this indication of battery aging? I don't use the battery much and it's less than a year old.

    Well, it's back to 100% but took a long time to get there like a day.

    A sign of battery capacity diminishing.

    Mine is new and when I installed it it was at 30%. A couple of hours later it was at 100%. I agree with John that what you are seeing could be the sign of a battery getting worn out.

    Batteries are shipped at low state of charge to reduce fire risk.
