The TH-F6A dies the same way when that battery is going, problem is, lithium
Ion batteries like they have now don't slowly lose voltage over time like
the NiCad's did so it's tough to give a accurate warning, when they go, they
go hard and fast. That's what I've been told anyway, that's why it's so hard
to put a real warning in them.
