Quoting Mark Lanctot
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
A single D cell has a capacity of 15 A*h. That means it could power a
Squeezebox for 7 hours, and a Squeezebox doesn't draw a full 2 A. Not
bad!
Also highly theoretical. Battery life isn't linear. Draw a
consistently higher current you may find that it lasts less than the
stated Ah. There can sometimes be sweet-spots, plus the voltage drops
over time. This can mean the device drops off before the battery is
used up, or the device draws more than the usual curent and runs the
battery down even faster.
