I got my M2E today and i checked the Labels on the M2E battery pack. I think the self heating seems to be just a marketing thing. Cause the Model-No. on the battery of the M2E is completly the same as on the batteries of my M2 Zoom.
If there is a diffrence in fact - please tell me how could it have the same Model-No. ???
I guess the test is to try the self heating function.
According to the M2E manual, press and hold the battery button for 5 seconds and it will go into pre-heat, if the battery is below 6C.
Put one in the fridge fr an hour and see if it will go into pre-heat when you take it out.
Heating the Battery
Manual Heating: Make sure the battery is powered off. Press and hold the Power Button for five seconds to initiate battery warm up manually.
The battery will warm up if the temperature is below 43 °F (6 °C) and the battery level is above 45%. As it warms up, the brightness of the LED indicators will change accordingly, signaling ‘no LED light’, low, medium, or high.
The battery will stop warming when it reaches 46 °F (8 °C), and the LED indicators will blink clockwise, indicating that the battery temperature is between 46 to 50 °F(8 to 10°C). This will last for approximately 20 minutes and then the battery will power off automatically. |
