In my P3, I don't recall EVER seeing the voltage for the battery exceeding 3.9.

I missed that you're using a P3 - the previous post was about a v2.5
Mowgli is correct - you're not seeing battery voltage on the P3.
TO - The battery % alternates with the voltage needed to achieve your wattage setting.

I believe that feature is part of the upgrade.

Never mind. I thought the latest P3 upgrade showed the remaining battery charge like the 2.5 or maybe like the Classic, but I was mistaken.

The Classic only has a graphic fuel gauge type display for how much the battery has and doesn't show volts.

My post was unclear, I meant the way the 2.5 or the Classic displays battery level. In any case, do you find the Classic display preferable to the P3%?

It's about the blinks... I counted.. Emm.. Nevermind, I'll leave the room.

:D

Why, do you need to go count the blinks again to make sure you were accurate? Did you time how long each blink lasts? I need both figures to determine how long before the battery goes dead.

To all the VP2 experts. I'm getting ready to leave and play some golf so I usually take my 2.5 for golfing. I did a battery check and the Provari reads 3.6 volts. I put in a fresh battery and placed the 3.6 battery in my VP2 and it read 3.9 volts. What am I missing?
.3 volts.

Hehe.. The V38 blinks yellow 15 times, if the battery is at 17% or below. Then stops, if the button remains undressed.

An undressed button could be a good thing?!?

Hi Lady Pancake! I saw you posting the other night, I hope all is well in your kingdom. :)
The Pancakes thank you and hope all is well in The Ocelot Lair! :wub: We're having quite a few challenges lately concerning our health, but we are fighting to overcome!

Le Provarinati might want to revoke my ProVari card after what I have done to Lord Pancake's Purple Joker ProVari. :unsure: At least I got it working again, I hope that counts for something. :cry:

3.6V vs 3.9V is the difference between the battery under load in the ProVari, and being charged in the charger. The charger will always read a little higher due to it being charged, and the ProVari will always read a little lower due to it being read while under load (firing the coil).

The answer I was looking for. Thank you. RB had to screw it all up with his P3 reading. So 3.6 volts on the Provari 2.5 is under load and would be different on the charger...
