Sorry if this has already been answered elsewhere. I have a PW 4 that almost a year old, and am slightly concerned about the battery. I've noticed that when the power light goes green, it's still on 96-97% or so and takes forever to get to 100%. I charged it to 100% last night, unplugged it and didn't use it for a couple of hours, and when I turned it on it had already dropped 2%. After 1-2 hours reading since last night it's down to 94%. I'm probably worrying about nothing but it this normal behaviour?

Edit: I have the frontlight on 11.
