Title: Question for V2 and 6V/7.2Ahr Eco charge batteries
Post by: stober on June 06, 2006, 12:21:29 AM
Well Bonnaroo is a little over a week away and I'm curious on how many 6V/7.2 ec90 Eco charge batteries to take.I have two and a friend has a four of them that I can borrow.I know I could get 6 hours with my V3  using one of the Eco's and I know the V3 draws a bit more juice than the V2 so I was wondering if someone here knows how long I should expect to get out of the Eco 6v.Thanks for any input.

I'd say at least 5, safely. I would'nt push it unless I had to...

The V-2 draws 500 milliamps,  so you could go 14.4 hours draining the battery completely.  12 hours would be a safe bet.

i agree w/ ed, 10-12 hrs safely

i used to get 10 hrs w/ the v3 on one 6v/7.2a eco, but it depends on how much current your mics are draining
