It is confusingOctober 29, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought a BP-809 and did not find enough information in instruction manual. Before use, I pressed the button to check battery capacity. It showed 1 Red and 4 Greens. I do not know what this means ? Almost full or almost empty ??
As usual, I tried to recharge the battery before using it for the first time. I left it on charger for 2 hours I came back to press the button to check the capacity. It still showed 1 Red and 4 Greens.
I started to use it on the camcorder. I played back recordings for almost half and hour. It should have recorded a change in capacity. I checked again. It still showed 1 Red and 4 Greens. What does it mean ???
I feel it is very important to be able to know the battery capacity to avoid important recording is interrupted due to no capacity
