  • SkyTrak Hardware Battery Indicator - working correctly?

    Using the PC beta version, wondering if the battery indicator accurately displaying the battery level from the SkyTrak device...
    1. Left the ST charging all night. Indicator showed it was charging and then in the morning it showed fully charged
    2. Connected via the PC beta and the battery level was only at 75%
    3. Is this an issue with the hardware or the software??

    Anyone else see a fully charged battery using the new Battery indicator feature on V2 ??


    Another note, it appears that when connecting via network WIFI, if you also have the charger connected to ST it will continue to charge.....

    Same thing is happening with my skytrak, but mine always says 47% charged no matter how much I use it or charge it.

      In my situation, as I utilize ST, the battery level does decrease with use. It was down to 15% when I finished and stopped for the evening. I charged it and left the charger plugged in overnight. Connecting the PC beta to the ST, showed the 75% charged level. So it appears to be accurately depicting changes to the battery level, however the battery in my situation isn't being charged to 100%. I have one of the "demo" units and have only had it a little over a month....

        Mine says 55% all the time when I hook it up, no matter how long it has been charging.

          Are you guys always charging by plugging into the PC or using a wall adapter?

            I always utilize the wall charger (and USB cable) provided with ST when charging the device.

              I've always used the wall adapter and had the same issue that it was only 70% after in thought I fully charged it. It did go up to 75 while plugged into the usb though while using the pc app and hitting some shots. Ended my range session before I got to see if it went any higher. Will try it again tonight

                I've tried both the wall charger and USB to the computer. Mine has said 47% since I installed a the beta .

                      I just got my Skytrak yesterday.

                      Charged it overnight, plugged into wall outlet using included USB charger. This morning, PC Beta app reported 75% charged.

                        Same with mine, never gets near 100%. But the charge lasts for my 1.5-2-hour practice sessions so I'm not too concerned about it.

                            Charged mine overnight. 74% when I connected it. Mine does go down though.

                              I just got mine on Thursday and it will only charge to 70%. I use the wall unit supplied by ST. I first noticed this the other day when I took it on the course, but I thought I may have accidently turned it on before I used it. I charged it overnight last night and now only 70%. I noticed this stread stopped on the 24th. Has there been a solution?
