For interest I've just tested my 661 powered with 4 2000 mAh Sanyo Eneloop = NiMH AAs Recording at 16/44.1, with two AT3032s, LCD at maximum brightness "8", and = LEDs "on" I got 3hours 54 minutes before the low battery warning came on. = Recording time would probably have been a little longer if I had reduced th= e LCD brightness and switched off the LEDs. It seems that 5 hours recording time will be possible with higher capacity = (2700 mAh) NiMH batteries. Cheers TomR |
