Battery
EDA70-X uses 3.8V rechargeable lithium ion battery as its main power supply. The battery
capacity is watt hour. Battery life is influenced by many factors, such as: screen brightness,
the length of time before the screen automatically go to sleep, input configurations, extreme
temperature and using behaviors, etc.
Honeywell suggests you to keep the battery charged to avoid data loss. Change battery only
after switching off the device as per normal. Switch on the device after completing change
