Maybe I just have a bad unit? I had it in my possession, and it was off. Charged it, ran fine for 2 installs. Put it back in the truck. Went to use it 2 days later and was dead. Charged it overnight, used it for 1 install, dead by the next install a couple days later. Nothing like having an angry installer on a roof with a dead test battery. Is there a battery indicator that I'm missing on it somewhere? I charge the USB Powerbank maybe once a month.

He sucks at charging it then.  They easily last all day.

My guys boot them up in the truck.

    My Installer won't use the powerlink anymore, it took way to long
    to boot, and the battery was always dead when we needed it.  We
    just use

    with a USB power pack now.  Just have to be careful on the older
    radios as to the pinouts for POE.  The newer EPMP/450 radios can
    accept either polarity.

    Tried the rest.  Made a bunch of homemade ones.  It's just not
    worth the effort and they've all got their problems.
