Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I seem to be getting more life out of my batteries than most people do. I'm getting 7-8 days on three batteries. My audionlogist, said I had a lower speed and that was probable what was keeping the batteries up, some folks have a higher speed than I do. But I'm doing well on this and I'm happy that my batteries last as long as they do. I for one could not afford them if they went down every day.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 , You're talking to a retired electronics tech. ROFL The work I did was not in the area of batteries so I never got into that. But Battery Bob supplied the information so we are good to go.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm on the 2400 speed and when they do the mapping they told me that I will get about 22 hours out of three batteries. I have been using headphones a lot lately and I think it drains the batteries even quicker. I replace them every other day. I'm fortunate in that I dont have to buy my batteries, but I do wished they lasted 3 or 4 days. Ted F. > > I seem to be getting more life out of my batteries than most people > do.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm not sure what you mean, Bob. I dont have any/much control over my mapping. We did try an 1800 speed map early on, on one of the other slots, but I preferred the 2400, so all 4 slots are filled now with 2400 maps.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm sorry, . All you Bob's look the same to me :-) Silly Ted > > (Its , I am , not Bob.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 Proof not required, Bob. I'll take your word for it. It just seems that they dont last as long. Its probably the Down Under factor :-) Ted F. > > Nope, Ted, even in the land of OZ, headphones, whether they be > intefaced with the CI via DAI or Telecoil, will not affect battery > life at all. > > Honest!

Guest guest Posted July 29, 2006 Report Share Posted July 29, 2006 Silly, No, we were never the last... Always the first ones to get the TV fixed... Remember, the hit across the side of the console to bring it back to life? Kinda like giving it CPR, ya know? LOLOL. Cin Electricians/ /Cin OT , Not sure you want to ask the electronic techs either..LOL That's what mine and Cin's dad did for a living... but let our television break down just one time and guess who was " last on the list " to get the T.V. fixed..LOLOL.. Why do throw away batteries last longer than the rechargeables?? (talkin double A's here) I dunno either, but glad they do or I wouldn't be as likely to buy them in a pinch for the cost if I were still using the body processor..LOL Cheers, Silly MI In , " " <rclark0276@...> wrote: > > Cin, > Electricians dont know anything about batteries.
