V180 new battery life ??
Posts: n/a less than one day with maybe 12 minutes of talk time. So...I got a brand new replacement Motorola battery, popped it in today...battery meter only gave me a 4, which is what it registered with the old one. Do I have to charge a new battery? I expected to see a 6 with a brand new battery. This is a work furnished cell phone. Other users of the same phone report long battery life, but not me. Any clues? Thanks.

Constent charging develops some type of internal memory that requires more frequent charging. This is a "known" issue by battery people and yet we (john q public) continue to charge and our battery life is limited.
