Extraneous Darks

Don't know if I was brilliant or crazy, but as I plan to head to elevation and schedule observations in the chilly night time while I'm cozy in my sleeping bag, I decided to put my D3 in the fridge to cool it down so I could take some darks at lower temps before the trip. The factory darks are at 25ºC.

I was successful, however, the D3 created two, or sometimes three instead of the expected one at a specific exposure and gain. Those multiples vary by only a degree or two.

Is this expected? or needed? Should I remove some of the redundant darks to save memory? Thanks.

How to disconnect the D3 from the app.

I wanted to disconnect from my D3 yesterday after taking some darks. I tapped the name of my telescope to bring up the nearby devices drop down as that's the only place I know that has a Disconnect button (shown in user manual 1.1.6.2) however the spinner spins next to Nearby Devices, but the drop down never populates. i.e., I do not see my device nor the Disconnect button next to it. The spinner just spins indefinitely.

Is there another procedure to disconnect that I have just not stumbled upon or is this an issue?

Is it my imagination or does the Dwarf app continue to run in the background, perhaps searching for the telescope connection? Seems since I activated my D3, my iPhone battery has been dropping much faster than usual. Finally dawned on me this morning to quit the app if I'm not going to be using the scope any time soon. Thanks.
