I measured the battery today. Its at 3.99 Volts after a night at the USB Charger.
Is this to low?

Sadly I didn't jailbreak it, so no RP installed. Its a completely vanilla Kindle but it has been on Airplane Mode for the last 2 yrs.

I've got a Adjustable Power Supply - should I hook the kindle up with 4.2 V at the battery terminals and see if it responds ? (I guess this won't work because of the missing middle pin labeled 'THM'? Maybe the temperature sensor?)
