Power Cover Discharge Rate a Bit Concerning

[Sir Face]

After a full charge, I'm noticing that my SP2 128gb with Power Cover runs down the Power Cover battery to 20% in just a couple of hours of use. Of course the internal battery is still showing 100%, but this seems a bit extreme to me. Is this the way it's supposed to work?

It is estimated to provide an additional 60% of battery life, so depending on what you are doing...

My Power Cover charge is down to about 40% after a two hours. The SP2 is maintained at 100%. This is stronger than the first two charge/discharge cycles. Seems the Power Cover needs to be exercised a bit at first, especially if you started using it before charging fully.

Yeah, I just assumed (and hoped) that it would improve somewhat with a few charge/recharge cycles. That usually holds true with lithium based batteries.

I got a total of 3 hours and 20 minutes of extra time using the SP2...
