Topic: modSBM and duracell ultras

[shaggy]

How long can I expect a fresh set of duracell ultras to last in a modSBM?

how about a pair of lithiums in an M1?

Trying to figure out out to get BTS and the Pixies on Monday without having to change cells.

I have used Energizer E2s in the mod sbm1 for right at 3 hours, with one bar left, but fading quickly.

Lithiums in an M1, I have never run mine longer than 4 hours on a set, but I suspect you could squeeze a little bit more out

i get close to four hours with my maha 2300 batteries - they are pretty sweet, esp with the two hour car charger (for when ou are really in a pinch)...

andy i've gotten over 6 hours in an m1 on lithiums, running mic-in or digi-in, then playing back thru line out.

one thing to consider - the M1's battery meter is basically useless with lithiums.  it will go from 3 bars to two rather quickly - first hour or so - then will go down to one bar within three hours, then will not ever flash at one or give the Lo Batt message - it will just go from one bar to DEAD without warning.

i used to run lithiums in the m1 all the time, and would usually get a whole show with the light on, rewind 2 60s, and listen to the whole show on the way back / in the room, and then get a first set the next night

Wow.  That's some juice.

Hey andy, just curious who that is in your avatar ...

Oh I have got about 4-5 hours on lithiums in the sbm1 if I remember correctly, now I just run an sla and never worry about it really. It's still a power hungry little ad ...

Fawn Knudsen or Bunny Lebowski aka Bunny LaJoya (played by the lovely Tara Reid).

Film: Big Lebowski

Bunny Lebowski: I'll suck your cock for a thousand dollars.
Brandt: Ah hahahahaha! Wonderful woman. We're all, we're all very fond of her. Very free-spirited.
Bunny Lebowski: Brandt can't watch, though, or he has to pay a hundred.
Brandt: Ah haha. That's marvelous.
The Dude: Uh, I'm just gonna go find a cash machine.
