You don't need to run down your Juice Pack unless it has a battery charge sensor that you also want to reset.

Hi Sieghard,

I decided to follow your recommendation of a full discharge and recharge of my 
phone.  DoI need to also run down the Juice Pack as well?  Thus far, I have 
about flattened my iPhone battery for the first time. just waiting for it to go 
flat.  It's been at 1% for hours, which is a good thing, gives us time to 
charge before completely killing the battery.  Thanks.

Sounds like you want to recalibrate your battery. Charge it up to 100%, then 
use the phone until your battery actually runs out completely and the phone 
shuts down. Then charge it up again to 100% (preferably over night when you are 
not using it) and repeat the discharge until it turns off. Then charge up one 
more time and see if the behavior corrects itself.


Regards,
Sieghard

Subject: Re: Inaccurate iPhone 5 S battery gauge

Mary, I have a mopey juice pack. What I have noticed is that the battery level 
is much lower until I plug the phone in. Then it shows a difference of about 
12%. I don't recall seeing this behavior start until I upgraded to I OS 8.

I upgraded to the latest version of iOS yesterday. Now, I turned off my phone 
overnight. This morning, I was surprised that it was down to 33%, because when 
I turned it off, it had been over 50. Generally, if your phone is off, you 
don't expect to lose 17% overnight.
I have one of those cases with a battery in it. So, I turned it on charge and 
kept using my phone intermittently with the screen sometimes locked. Three 
hours ago, when the battery in the case stopped charging, my phone gauge said 
78%.I have use the phone some sense then. Quite a bit actually, such that I 
would expect that it would've lost several percentage points. But the gauge 
still insists that I have 78% battery left. I am just wondering if anyone else 
is experiencing erratic battery level reporting since upgrading to this latest 
version of iOS.
