Default Powertap 2.4 sl battery life

I bought a new unit in August and have been learning lots since then. That said, I was distressed yesterday when clearing the stored workouts that I got a "lowbat" message.

The manual says that the battery should last for 400 hours of CPU usage. How could I be getting a low batter warning after only 3 months of usage. I am not training 1200 hours a year

If its defective, I don't want to waste too much time learning that.

Thanks for any thoughts.

I have a friend that has the same problem. The contact at Saris told him that it was a problem with the computer and to ignore it. It would drive me crazy, I'd have to send it back.
