Subject: [Leica] R8 Motor/Battery
From: "Wilber Jeffcoat" <wilber@jeffcoatphotography.com>

Is anyone having trouble with the rechargeable batteries for the R8 motor.
Getting ready to do some shooting and brought a fresh charge up on a battery
for today. Did this by discharging the battery (by the book) and then
letting it full recharge (three lights indicated) That was yesterday. Put it
in the camera all was fine. Today it was totally dead. Just sitting
overnight-camera was in the "A" mode-thumb advance in. Battery has had
little hard use-has a full charge about 8 time in the past yr.
Any thoughts.
Cheers Wilber
