Hi guys. Anyone know how to fix this problem. Twice now iv'e been stranded with a flat battery. Fuully charged it before a 65 mile ride yesterday and after my commute to work it's dead again. The only thing i can think of other than a duff battery is the way i charged it. I plugged it into an exposure light charging plug/adapter. It's the internal seatpost battery, if that makes any difference. I have read on another forum that people suggest only charging from a laptop USB port. Not sure if this is true. Thanks

    Are you able to tell if the battery is in a fully charged state before you set off? I understand its a micro USB port used to charge it, so any USB charger should be fine.

    It was fully charged but completely died. Having got home I pulled the battery out of the seatpost and it was pretty damp. Dried it off and all seems fine although I'm not sure on the best way to stop water getting in there again.
