Think about this. The longer a battery lasts, the heavier it is in weight. Option # 1, If you can get a rechargeable battery that would last 8 hours, this would be the ideal battery. If it lasts longer, you are carrying around excess weight. If it won't last 8 hours, there is the chance of running out of power. The other option, # 2, might be even better. A battery that would last 4 hours would weight half as much and could be swapped out at lunch time. This would require two batteries. And of course, Li batteries are lighter than Zinc carbon. Just something to think about. Frank
