Thread: Battery Power: 75%, yet the droid says *Low Power*

My droid show 75% power in my datapad, yet when I give it a command, it says *Low Power*. This is in a droid that was made quite some time ago (78/100 vitality right now) with auto-repair modules installed and running.


Just thought I would post here about it, I also /bug'd it.



On a side note, what ever happened to getting some sort of power meter on the droids ham bar? Wasn't this something that was supposed to happen a long time ago? If not, maybe it is just something that I wanted to happen a long, long time ago...in a galaxy far, far away...

Display bug with only older droids? Or do new droids have the same problem?

It's a display bug. And yeah, the power bar is still being discussed. I hope it makes it in soon.

Seeing the same thing with a droid and batteries that are a few months old. Are old batteries still only good for 1hr? Need to buy new batteries? It's not just displaying low power, it really is low power, so I hope I'm not misunderstanding that statement. The droid functions stop working in an hour instead of 4 hours.

Thanks.

As far as I am aware droids register their power level above 75% correctly but after running town to 75% or lower they stay stuck at 75% in the display.

Fairly sure all batteries work the same.

Yep. Only the droid's power consumption changed, not the batteries.
