For what it is worth -- This has happened to me twice. I have a newly delivered unit upgraded to the latest Mate software. The first time I thought I hadn't shut down the system and it drained to about 10%. The second time I thought maybe I had confused the system somehow. In that instance I noticed that there was an underscore cursor showing in the upper left corner of the screen with a faint screen illumination.
Usually when I shut down with the power pack plugged in, the Pinebook shuts down and then briefly turns back on and puts up the lightning bolt battery image, then completely shuts down. But this time underscore I noticed didn't go away and the battery image did not appear in a reasonable amount of time. The cursor didn't go away and the display shut down until I held the power button down for several seconds. Interesting anomaly. Not the worst idiosyncrasy I've ever encountered.
