Charging Battery
The Joule 2.0 is powered by a user replaceable lithium-ion battery that can be recharged using
the included USB cable and a computer. A 5VDC 400mA charger can also be used (not included).
A fully charged battery can run for approximately 20 hours before it must be recharged. Recharg-
ing completely, via USB cable or AC adapter will take approximately six hours. The battery level is
