SX10 CHDK.....change batteries?

[snatiep]

Hello Everyone!

I have been using the SX10 CHDK for a few weeks now and I love it! The only problem I have been having with it is every now and then, the camera will tell me to change the batteries even though I have just put in freshly charged ones.

I set the battery MAX voltage to 2000 mV, and set the Battery MIN voltage to 50mV. (I know....50mV is obviously way toooo low, but I though it would take care of the change battery message but it didn't)

Has anyone of you had this message pop up, and did you find a way around it?

Thank you all very much for your help and thoughts!

You might want to check the voltage in each of your batteries. There's a possibility one of them is not holding a good charge. I had the same problem and one of the batteries discharged fairly quickly.

Thanks configsys!

I am using eneloops and charge them with a MH-C9000 smart charger.....so I'm sure it probably isnt the batteries.

Its just a small issue with the chdk as when I get the change batteries message, if I just open the battery door for a second then close it, the battery percentage jumps back to 100%

Could be a mechanical problem with the door not closing securely, then.
