Hi Selene,

Thanks for sharing technical thoughts and background.

I'm in the position of having two BQ E4.5 and two USB cables. I will
mark them and switch them too, to see if this changes anything.

As I said, between 5 pm and 6:45 pm my wife's BQ suffered again a total
drain. We recharged the device between 7pm and midnight and attached is
the picture what the battery says this morning. Interestingly, it shows
100% but the red line stays on zero.
