[3:34] <Meiz_TB> I think my Touchbooks top battery charging management fails.
[3:35] <Meiz_TB> I can normally only get about 20 minutes out of it
[3:37] <Meiz_TB> But i charged it using the bottom battery jack and got about 2.5 hours

[10:48] <Meiz_TB> hi
[10:49] <Meiz_TB> I don't understand allthe ppl at forums nagging about batterylife...
[10:54] * Meiz__TB (~Meizirkki@kone169220.ippnet.fi) has joined #touchbook
[10:55] * Meiz_TB (~Meizirkki@kone169220.ippnet.fi) Quit (Read error: No route to host)
[10:56] <leinir> Meiz__TB: The problem is straight forward - they were promised 10-15 hours...
[10:56] <leinir> and aren't getting it
[10:56] <leinir> They're childish and need to get a grip, absolutely, but that's where the problem lies :)
[10:57] <Noume> If powersaving and charging would work properly 10-15h should be fairly doable
[10:58] <leinir> Just letting the processor scale properly would likely help... but 10-15 hours active use, that's unlikely to happen
[10:58] <leinir> The screen is simply too expensive for that
[10:58] <Noume> let alone wifi and bluetooth
[10:59] <leinir> indeed
[10:59] <Meiz__TB> I get 8 hours without omap-pm, no wlan powersaving, screen on all the time..
[10:59] <Noume> power saving does not seem to work for those and wifi is known as a battery guzzler
[10:59] <leinir> Meiz__TB: hmm... interesting :)
[10:59] <Meiz__TB> I don't think 10 hours is impossible
[11:01] <Meiz__TB> It's just that the top battery charging fails i think
[11:01] <Noume> You have about 18Ah of capacity. That gives about 65Wh of energy. The board should be around 2W or so and the screen about 2-3W so i think with proper powermanagement you could even exceed 15h
[11:02] <Meiz__TB> ^
[11:02] * Vito89_ (~quassel@gw.loccal.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds)
[11:03] <Noume> Weel, the design is flawed in some ways, there should be more power on the 5V
[11:03] <Meiz__TB> I have soldered batteries cables together and use the keyboard board for charging them
[11:04] <Meiz__TB> because the top battery wasn't charging properly
[11:04] <Meiz__TB> and the hinge cracked.. so i had to give up using the keboard part :p
[11:05] <Meiz__TB> My touchbook is a _bit_ modified
[11:06] * Meiz__TB can't wait to get Mer running properly :)
[11:08] <Noume> I am still waiting for mine and i have some modifications in mind
[11:08] <Noume> Unfortunately there's barely any documentation for the TWL4030. I wondered if it's possible to connect to cells in series. That could hep solving power problems
[11:09] <Noume> *two
[11:18] * Vito89 (~quassel@gw.loccal.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 276 seconds)
[11:27] <DJWillis> Noume: TPS65950 is the public version of the TWL4030 (i.e. it's sold in low volume under the TPS65950 name) so you may want to look for docs for the TPS65950 ;-)
[11:31] <Eruquen> Meiz__TB, how is it going with Mer?
[11:31] <Noume> Aww, many thanks DJWillis , i hope this will answer everything i need ;)
[11:32] <Meiz__TB> Stskeeps said he might look at getting gles to work better monday.
[11:32] <Eruquen> that sounds great
[11:32] <Eruquen> I can't wait to try it
[11:34] <Noume> So now i see it won't be possible but i still can try to solve the usb power issue in another way :)
