I keep my T1 plugged in when not in use. But as soon as I unplug it and start to use it displays a battery low message. Am I doing something wrong? ---

My previous message to support regarding battery drain has gone unanswered. I sent another moments ago. Please help me to resolve the issue with my T1 Paperweight. ---

I’m still having battery drain issues.. Every time I go to use the tape it’s dead. NO I don’t use it everyday but when I need it, I need it.. Been removing battery to keep it from draining. ---
