While charging my Tekkeon battery on solar power it sometimes starts chirping at me and I am not sure why(it has 4 of 8 lights on the charge meter, so it shouldn't be chirping because of low or full battery).
The manual doesn't mention anything about this, the only instances where it mentions beeping is when a device draws too little power. I don't have anything plugged into the battery, so I'm not drawing any power.
My assumption right now is that it might have to do with not enough voltage reaching the Tekkeon(it requires 12V to charge), since it does seem to happen more often when the clouds are out.
EDIT: it seems that by actually plugging something into the battery(like my laptop) causes the chirping to stop. WTH? Also I'm uncertain about it being related to cloud coverage as it was happening earlier even in full sunlight.
