    I set my PIP Charge Timer every Sunday-Thursday night to Start at 5 AM. It's never failed.

    I get to work with no battery left.
    I press the Timer, it displays 5 AM, I increase it 4 hours to 9 AM. Very easy. Ready for Lunch.

    However, a month ago and now today, I go out for Lunch and have no battery. DAMN.
    I check the Timer and it displays 9 PM. WHAT !!! How can it be PM?
    I only increased it 4 hours as I always do. I didn't increase it 16 hours !!!

    Now it's only happened twice, but that's 2 times too many.

    Has Anyone else noticed this?

    Never happened to me...but wasn't there a Seinfeld episode about the AM-PM issue?

    This is why all my clocks use 24-hour time. Never have an issue with getting am/pm messed up.

    I truly don't believe I COULD have done it. I only increased it 4 hours from 5 AM to 9 AM.
    To change the timer 16 hours, 5 AM to 9 PM, you have to hold down the button for 8 seconds.
