[Ethereum] Insufficient funds for gas * price + value

ethergo-ethereumtransactionsweb3js

Sending Address has over 1 Eth in current Balance.

Using the Geth console, I can send many transactions of any amount less than .033

eth.sendTransaction({to:'0x8B9da75fda99bAd680154050Ba386523CA3AD112', 
from:'0x62396567241bC92Ee3D082AC3C4144511Ec6c773',
value:web3.toWei(.033,'ether'),gas:30000})

"0x113dd5b9c8bb6d48fe2b3ef16576905f6e46aa4ed6cd080120a2aaf54113e7b4"

If I try to send .034 ETH or greater, then I always get this error.

eth.sendTransaction({to:'0x8B9da75fda99bAd680154050Ba386523CA3AD112',
from:'0x62396567241bC92Ee3D082AC3C4144511Ec6c773',value:web3.toWei(.034
,'ether'),gas:30000}) Insufficient funds for gas * price + value

It seems to be a bug in geth, try the solution presented here : https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/issues/2173

they assume that the solution is :

Convert all values to hex (with bc if you use bash)

Make sure to specify both gas and gasPrice! Enclose all values in single quotes eth.sendTransaction({from:'0x123456', to:'0x123456', value: '0x8AC4270ACC4B7FF7', gas: '0x5208', gasPrice: '0x4A817C800'});"
