SPV battery life problem

[Guest f1fan111]

Hello

I have had my SPV from december 2002 and the battery life has been good but recently it has just become very poor.

I have fully charged it and if i turn it off with 4 bars when i turn it back on i have 1 and sometimes it will go upto 2 bars

I did fall sleep one night and it charged for at least a extra 6 hours

Is there anyway i can solve this problem??

thanks for any help

Try a good 12 hour charge, but by the sounds of it you need

to get yourself a new battery as it's had a good life.

It's always recommended to change your battery every year

as they are only designed to be charged around 300-500 times.

where can you get new battery from as Orange website only stocks SPV E100 battery and there expensive and cheaper to buy a 2nd hand SPV from ebay

Unfortunately I do not know of a stockist but you could try www.ora.co.uk
