I am using my CM4 Uconsole for some browsing, emailing and sometimes to watch a short youtube video… All in all I can squeeze about 2,5 to 3 hours out of the battery. I have read that others get up to 5 hours. Is there a smart way to let the unit go into sleep mode? It is a bit frustrating needing to shut down and reboot all the time.
The protected ones work well too, though they are a tight fit. I got some for the DevTerm way back when and they’re still going strong. (At the time, discussions seemed to be tending toward getting protected cells, which I realize now are probably overkill, but that’s why I got them.) Though I haven’t taken them out again, except at the start just to make sure I could, I put a loop of scotch tape around each of them so I’d have something safe to pull on to get leverage when removing them.
