Does the same thing happen when you close the lid? I'm thinking that you might have your computer set up to turn off or sleep when the lid is closed. Otherwise, I would suspect that your battery connectors lose contact when jarred and shut the machine down. That is definately not normal, and should be fixed ASAP. The abrupt shutdowns can cause problems.

I'm not sure...I don't leave it on when it's not in use. I only turn it on when I go to back up my files and then I power down after I'm done/eject.

It has auto turnoff as others have said. The battery will probably outlast the calculator.

If you turn the power off completely, it will be fine for whenever you play next, which is what I do. However, if you leave it in "clock" mode or use it for walking, it will continue to use battery.

There is no off button, it switches off automatically when not in use and not in a direct light source. It will save the power harnessed from any light source directly into the battery.

I have already returned both units that I purchased. However, if I remember correctly, there are 4 lights showing the strength of the battery. Not sure about the on/off.

You can disconnect the battery to turn it off. To charge the battery, connect it to an USB port (with the USB cable provided )

No need to turn off when not in use. Battery will last a few weeks at full day use.

I can double check, but from memory, it is always on. The battery consumption is so minimal that it doesn't need to shut off.

no it has low battery warning, it will turn off prior to killing your battery

there's a way to turn it off but you have to un screw the ball and essentially remove the metal connector that completes the circuit for the battery so I would not really call it a switch but theres a way to turn it off

Nope. I have had it for several months and it is still on the same battery. It turns off automatically when not in use for a few minutes, you just press a button and it's back! I love it...and it feels really nice in the hand. I am happier than I thought I would be with it!

There are 7 screws holding it together, the battery is replaceable "ks4. 5-12 sealed lead-acid". Check if there is battery water in the 6 cells.

Hello Harold, I had never turn it off because in the user manual says that it turns off automatically, I have been using it for about 2 months and I did not replaced the battery as you mention.
