Date: Tue, 2 Mar 2004 10:36:17 -0500 I agree this would be the best approach, but some of us don't have 15 hours a day to spare ;) The new 2200 mhA should be providing at least 10-12 hours of playtime...that would take a very long time. However, since even these results don't seem to convince you guys, I am willing to do it. I do have an external maha charger and I will charge using that. I'll post my results in a few days (since it will take me that long). In the meanwhile, I suggest you guys start looking for some answers ;) -Lucas "Linus Nielsen Feltzing" <linus_at_haxx.se> wrote in message news:40444259.8050300_at_haxx.se... > Lucas wrote: > > I played one album (on repeat) for 45 minutes with the > > batteries fully charged using a daily build from 3 or 4 days > > ago and the archos 1.27d firmware. > > Extrapolating the very inaccurate battery readings is a bad idea.
