[mkgmap-dev] battery low because of DEM?

From Gerd Petermann gpetermann_muenchen at hotmail.com on Tue Mar 20 09:53:54 GMT 2018

Hi Nick,

okay, so it probably was coincidence. I've got 2 2100 mAh accus and I typically never have to think about them,
means, on my long tours in the summer I load them in the night and can cycle more than 100 km without seeing a battery low message.
In the rare cases where the message appeared the device continued to work for at least 30 minutes.
In these cases the device crashed a few minutes after showing the message, so probably the temperature near 0°C was the problem.

Gerd
