When you press the test button, the red LED will blink once when the battery is good. The LED will blink three times when the battery is low, and not at all when the battery is virtually dead.
Something is not right with your answer. I decided to test this with my 2.76V battery. I pressed the test button a little over 100 times until the LED no longer blinked. I never saw it blink 3 times while hitting the test button. It only blinked once for each push of the test button.
Instead, what I noticed is that upon reinserting the battery into the compartment and closing it, the LED blinked 3 times if the battery was weak and only 2 times with a fresh battery.
Does this sound right, or is my firmware different?
Now I know that I have at least 100 shots left when a battery is at 2.76V at room temperature. But, hearing your suggestion to use the LED as an indicator is much more convenient than getting out a volt meter. I'm curious if anyone at PCB knows about how many shots the CST would get when it is at the threshold of blinking 3 times?
