nagh - i'm afraid you've got a bug

lol - must be one of the many spiders i'v seen around the place...

depends on the implementation.

Some batteries are used even when plugged in. Some are ONLY used when plugged in.

Exposure to oxygen causes them to flattern in a lot of cases.

Low battery can caus instability on older mobo's.

Testing a battery with a voltmeter might not put enough load on it, so from V=IR the R is far too high, so with the low current level, the V is high enough still.

Just like my signature says - I have learned something new today. If i ever start experiencing system instability, checking the battery level will now be one of the many things i'll check

also remember to look left AND right when crossing a road, ideally look left again also
