I would say do a runtime test on it. That will tell you one way or the

long period of time.
What do you mean by a runtime test? I tried searching but didn't come up
with anything.
Thanks,

It could also be crud in the power switch. My TinySA was a victim of that.
It was highly intermittent. I opened it tonight and after unplugging the
battery I vigorously exercised the switch a couple of dozen times. That
helped. If the problem comes back I will hit it with some CRC cleaner and
maybe DeOxit Gold.

I like the battery theory, but I measure 4.1 volts across the battery
terminals with the unit turned on (battery is marked 3.7v) and the device
behaves exactly the same way when plugged into the charger with the
battery
disconnected. Neither of those seems consistent with the battery being
the
problem.
