My experience is that the battery indicator at top right does not give an accurate reading of the battery condition. Mine was showing four bars and would still lose memory when I turned it on.

But if the firmware supports two battery indicators, they should show some consistency, shouldn't they? Just my personal opinion. YMMV
WP43 SN00000, 34S, and 31S for obvious reasons; HP-35, 45, ..., 35S, 15CE, DM16L S/N# 00093, DM42β SN:00041
