1.4. BATTERY

The mobile computer is fed by two batteries, main battery pack and backup battery. Main
battery is removable and replaceable from battery chamber while backup battery is
mounted on the main board inside the mobile computer.
When the mobile computer ships, main battery isn't installed but stored in a separate
package, which keeps it in good condition for future use.
MAIN BATTERY
Main battery is a 3.7V / 3300 mAh Li-ion battery pack to be put inside battery chamber.
Typically it takes about 4 hours to charge the main battery to full. The working time of the
mobile computer varies by its working states. Under normally operation, it works for up to
10 hours. An icon on Title Bar helps monitor main battery level. See Main Battery .

BACKUP BATTERY
Backup battery settles on the main board inside the mobile computer. It is a 25 mAh
rechargeable Lithium type. When main battery is absent or depleted, backup battery takes
over to feed the mobile computer. Without main battery, a fully charged backup battery
retains the data in the DRAM and holds the system in suspension for 30 minutes.
Backup battery is rechargeable by the external power (through power adapter) or main
battery pack. It takes about 8 hours to charge it to full. An icon on the Title Bar makes
it observant that backup battery gets low. See also Backup Battery Level.
Note: To power on the mobile computer, the battery door must be secured in place. If not,
the status LED will blink red twice and go off to alert to failure to power on the mobile
computer. See also Status LED.
