Empty battery, EZReader beeping
I haven't used the EZReader for months, and the battery was depleted.
I plugged it into the wall and it started beeping. ALso the light switches from red, orange to green (orange = red and green together). I managed to plug it in and boot it; but wonder if the changing R/O/G colors and beeping have anything to do with a bad battery? |

I think I've had that problem with my BeBooks. I just left them on the charger overnight and things seem to have sorted themselves out without further problems.

Charge (using the supplied charger. Using a USB port could take a full day) for at least 14Hrs. Best wait for the 'Fully Charged' symbol (a power plug). |

Left it charging for like 2 days, completely forgot about it;
It does seem like it recharged the battery, though I don't know how long the batt will hold. I've currently got 4 ebook readers, and can barely find time to read with one. Bad investment? Perhaps... |

After what seems like 4 years, my ereader still boots up, but with empty battery sign.
I plug it in USB port, without success. Plug it in charger, and the light is intermittent orange (blinks once for about .75 seconds, every three seconds). Where can I find replacement batteries? The battery isn't blown up, and seems to be functioning, but I don't think I'll get a lot of charge out of it! |

For future reference, I found a website going into the details on the EzReader or the LBook V3 variants (they seem to use the exact same type of battery, type V5-364560):
