Power Predictor Results
Well, it’s about time I wrote a new post so here it is! I retrieved the Power Predictor from the mast on the 12th January after I had returned from my Christmas holiday in Hong Kong and Thailand. I must admit, I was a little anxious of whether the Power Predictor had stood up to the harsh weather conditions the UK had experienced whilst I’d been away, but I had nothing to worry about. Upon examining the device, the plastic cover was coated in ice particles and was completely misted up, but I soon managed to undo the clips and retrieve the memory card. I think the silicon moisture absorber pad, which comes inside the Power Predictor had done its job well! I was also a little worried that the battery might have run flat on me, considering I’d left it for 6 weeks in the very cold weather, but all was fine. A fellow Power Predictor user commented on one of my previous blog entries to say that the battery had run flat on him after only a few days, but this was because he had left the screen display on, instead of setting it to turn off after 5 seconds. I spoke to Toby from Better Generation the other day and he said that they are replacing the current battery the device is supplied with, with a long life Duracell one for extra piece of mind. But like I say, I didn’t experience any problems with low battery life.
