Hi Nils,

Welcome on board ;)

> Yesterday I put the NEO on the charger and let it boot. It booted up
> fine and started charging the battery.

> Today when I returned to my desk the NEO was constantly rebooting, i.e.
> the splash showed up for a second, then went dark again, stayed dark for
> about three to four seconds and started over again.

> One possible way to explain this could be that after charging was
> finished last night the charger was switched off and the device put back
> into battery mode not using the AC adapter at all anymore. Subsequently
> the battery drained completely until this morning which causes the
> (know) reboot cycle.

> Does that make sense?

I think so. That would correlate with some of my findings as well.
