I'll let you know how it goes once the 2 hour charge has finished.

So this is promising!
That is looking good! I have a sneaky feeling (with little real-world evidence because it hasn't happened to me) that some of the units are supplied with batteries discharged well below what the firmware likes, and so they need a good charge to get up to the minimum level that will allow boot.
