HD on, reading, LED off ~ 600 mA
HD spin up before read max 800 mA
- So leaving the unit on and paused consumes ~100mA, and thus much less then
- needing to reboot the unit. Your mileage may vary.

+Q13: When I plug the charger in my Recorder, it doesn't immediately start
+ charging the batteries. And when I plug in the charger when the Recorder
+ is turned off, it turns itself on and starts charging in the Archos
+ software? What's up?
+A13: There is a switch in the DC IN jack of the Jukebox - when a charger (or
+ whatever) is plugged in, the unit is powered on, even if the charger
+ is not plugged in a mains outlet.
+
+ If the charger is providing power at this point, the Archos firmware
+ located on the FLASH ROM does not load a new firmware version (like
+ Rockbox) from the disk, but goes into charging mode instead. You can
+ use this feature to get to the Archos charger if you want to.
+
+ When Rockbox is running on the Recorder (the device has been booted
+ without the charger) it's power management code runs once per minute
+ (thus the charge level and charging status is only updated every minute).
+ If the battery is not full, it will start charging. If the 'deep
+ discharge' mode is enabled in the settings menu, it will start charging
+ only when the battery is almost empty.
