 Ah, this might be it -- I noticed that it seems to work better the first
time, but then goes downhill from there; it could be that the first time I
do this it charges up fully, but after that I'm being too impatient to keep
testing.. The T20 'ready' light comes on gradually, so it's obvious what's
going on; the Miranda flash just lights up all at once, and perhaps it's
lighting up before it really should.

 thanks!
