Twangmaster A very little googling and you'll find the meta support article on what the strap battery button is supposed to do. I got non-ptc v81.1034 yesterday and now the button does not seem to do anything except the strap battery does seem to show its charge level ok.
The following table lists the different functions of the button on top of the Elite strap with battery.
| Function | Action | Result |
| Power off | Press and hold for 5-8 seconds (LED solid green until button has been released) when headset is powered on and connected to strap. | Elite strap with battery will power off and will not charge the headset until the button is pressed again or an approved wall adapter is connected to the strap. |
| Reset | Press and hold for more than 12 seconds. | To reset the strap when it's not working properly. |
| Power on | Short press button once. | sower on or wake up Elite strap with battery.
Note: The strap LED does not turn on when powering up. |
| Check battery level | Press button once when strap is active. |
Note: The strap LED does not stay on while charging. |
The "power on" and "check battery level" instructions are identical. The LED always comes on for 5 seconds after a brief press.
To reset, while no LED is on, press and hold the button until the LED turns green. Keep holding the button until the green LED goes off and release the button immediately. In v79 I always had to do this after powering off the Q3 to get it to recognize the Elite battery in the power display in the eyepiece. In v81, the headset seems to consistently recognize the Elite battery automatically.
I disagree that the green LED means that the headset is powered off! That is rather counter-intuitive.
If my Elite battery has good charge and I press and hold the button for about 20 seconds (i.e. keep holding the button after the green LED goes out) it will flash orange about 5 times... I have no idea what that setting is for, unless that is actually powering off the Elite battery.
I am on v81.1034 build 5131230.23000.520 not PTC.

Sorry but I have no idea what you're talking about mate, lol! The button features are directly from meta support.
