Should not happen. Maybe not charging but somehow shows full charge? Possibly a defect?

New lithium batteries don't hold as much of a charge as when they have been charged a few times times. My WS-5 headphones lost charge fairly quickly when I first got them. I replaced the battery and had the same problem. After charging a few times, they hold a charge much longer.
I've seen short times with mine also but was able to fix it. On a new machine when it says it's charged it's not. Pull the plug and hook it up again. Do this after each time it says it's charged until it won't take anymore. After that it should be fine.
I also had the issue when the control box would not show it was charging even though it was. I could turn on the control box while it was plugged in and go to the info screen and scroll over where you see the battery voltage. It has the battery icom showing it's charging. Now turn off the remote from that screen and it now shows charging. From then on you are ok.
I read on a Facebook forum that XP is away of this problem and will have it fixed in the next release. In the current firmware they have the cutoff voltage screwed up and it's stopping the charge too soon.
I still have my Deus 1 and while I never had this issue with it as an early user I had many other issues. They eventually fixed all the issues over a couple of month period. The Deus II will be the same. I has seen several things that I would call issues compared to my Deus 1 that I am hoping will be corrected. At this point I will just sit back and wait on the next few release to see what they fix.
The only thing they has never fix is the poor connection with the MI-6 pinpointer. It's always been hit and miss. You can't trust the connection. I was hoping on the 2 they would fix it but it's just as messed up as it was on the 1.
I got way off subject from batteries but try what I said on charging and it will work until they get the cutoff voltage issue corrected.
