Since I have two different models of GQ Geiger counter, the following question arises ... The GMC320+V5 appears at full battery - charge complete. With the GMC500+ there is no confirmation of full charge. Is that not in the firmware intended, or I have not long enough charged the battery?

On my 500+ the battery is solid at 100%. No charging bars going across.

When the device is off, it should say 'Charge Completed' or something when it's fully charged, and if the device is ON, the battery should stop moving when fully charged.

Okay, device is off ...

GMC320+V5 Charging


GMC320+V5 Completly


GMC500+ Charging and Charging and Charging ...


Can you see the different? The GMC500+ never says the Akku is full.

Edit: Okay, the battery icon stop flashing if the accu is full.
This is a little indication.

I see, yes in the 500/+ it will say 'Battery Level' if it's either full or not plugged through USB. It will say it's charging if not full and the battery icon will flash/move. It's different than the 300/320+/V5.
