1Q1: Are my batteries charged all the time when connected to my Player/Recorder?
2A1: Player: the charging is all done by hardware and the exact
3 functionality is hard to determine. It is however not recommended to keep
4 the charger connected for more than 10-15 hours if you're not using the
5 unit.
6
7 Recorder: no. The charging algorithm is carefully crafted in to not wear
8 out the batteries any more than necessary. If you're using your unit
9 connected to the charger most of the time, use the 'deep discharge' option
10 to save your batteries somewhat.
