Panasonic sure do holds a bit more than Energizer but I didn't expect the indicator to suddenly drop from full to just 1-bar..

Yes. also noted on mine... at 7 months when I posted ( info a couple entries up ) they were full.

 

One week later the email came the bateries were low... 15% I believe ( not sure ), I changed them out but let the other camera continue.

It went to 2 bars after another week, then dropped to 1 bar the next day.

So, from full to 1 bar in two days while lasting 7+ months is fast drop out on indicator ( only one day at 2 bars )
