the plate, but i would use Blue shape and RED bricks (same company that makes both) and would occur here and there. Just trying to figure out why its doing that?
 
Tested the WC gear on both of my weapons and the Scarlet is fine but the epic not so much. Sent the saved log to RED and hoping its just a minor issue cross your fingers guys thanks!!!
 
I am holding off on purchasing the WC Blueshape Cableless V-mount until this gets sorted. We have all been waiting a long time but I guess we will have to wait some more. Does anyone else sell a battery plate with low mode? I have a bunch of Red Bricks I would like to continue using but I don't like them sticking up so high.

I am not having the brick voltage/power percentage left error, but I think I know why you are getting the startup issue. I have the same WC Blueshape plate...but I also have the WC top plate (which it looks like you have also.) After they sent me the board that allows for record start/stop, I started having errors like you on start up. I was having the error about 30-40% of the time on startup. After sending the log to RED all they could see was that the camera was having issues communicating with the LCD. Since my camera has worked fine since February with the WC Top Plate, and it only started after installing that board and the new firmware, I figured it had to do something with that. So I removed the battery and now for almost a week I've had the error zero times. That's zero times with probably 50-75 boots. I've emailed WC this week about the issue but no response (which is weird.)

So try removing the battery from the top plate board and see if your boot issue goes away and also possibly the battery read issue goes away.
