I recently bought a 2nd-hand (but little-used) DR1000, and even though I have now charged it (from between 20-50%) about 4x, it never turns off the orange battery charging light, even when I leave it loading overnight. Does anyone know why this might be the case? I read in some older threads that there used to be a bug in the old (1.71?) firmwares, where it would only learn when it was full after a number of times, but I couldn't find out how many times I should expect that to be, so any hints would be appreciated. (I can still exchange it for another one.) The device runs on 2.0 rc3.
