E010 S95986 HSB power cell does not hold charge
E010 S95986 HSB wrist watch power cell does not always retain enough charge to last 24 hours--the watch stops at night. Charging in direct sunlight is necessary for the watch to run 24 hours and that doesn't always work. How long should it take to charge the power cell? Is the power cell defective?

Change the capacitor. This is the thing accumulating the energy. As the ordinary batteries, it may go bust, so, all you have to do is to replace it. There is no such a name as power cell in Citizen EcoDrive watches - there are CAPACITOR. Capacitor absorbs the energy from the light sensitive panel(s) and dispenses it in the ordinary battery manner. Advertisements are saying that you will never have to change the battery - that's right, because there are no batteries at all. Instead of battery there are CAPACITOR, but nobody says it will last forever. Rate me, plz.
