According to this page, I should expect 8 times the capacity with D cells:=

I don't know anything about lithium batteries, but on that page they have l=
ess capacity than alkalines. Is that a mistake?=0D

I'm intending to do some overnight recordings, but will have the opportunit=

be ok.=0D

Hi Peter, I'm interested in your experience. With two good AA cells I get m=
ore than 30 hours with M10. If I would get more I'd also consider Lithium A=
A cells. With another recorder I get 3-4 times extension.=0D
Comparing AA with D, I'd expect more than 4-5 time extension. However no pe=
rfect rules ... it also depends on the recorder ...=0D

I suppose you're planning to record MP3, as the main limit in the M10 is th=
e use of max 32GB. I tried with a 64GB SDXC but unsuccessfully (maybe I hav=
e to try again....)=0D
=0D
Let us know your findings.=0D

I've just put together an external battery pack (2xD cells) for my M10, and=
I've got a few questions about how it will behave, if anyone else has done=
this.=0D
=0D
- When I plug it, the battery indicator on the screen goes off. Will there =
be any sort of warning when the battery is getting low?=0D
- Will it switch to the internal battery when the external one goes flat?=
=0D
- How many hours should I expect from D cells? I'm guessing they're about 4=
or 5 times the capacity of the AA cells?=0D
- It seems to switch between internal and external without interruption whe=
n I unplug it and plug it back in. Are there any problems with doing that w=
hile it's recording?=0D
