[AT] Spam/Phish> Battery Issues - Charging

[LeRoy Price III]

Well, the meter on the charger goes from Zero to 100% or full a charge.  The
way it reads is that its suppose to go towards the 100% mark.  Now there is 
a light
indicator on it that is suppose to change from yellow to green when its 
fully charged
and its still yellow.

Now one battery got up to 60% and fell back a bit to 50% and is staying 
there.  Not sure
why.

I guess I leave it on and see what happens....
