All the reports we have seen indicate that the following is a wildly off the mark:
Quote:
The iRex Digital Reader has a battery of 1300 mA (milliampere) and with software version 1.0 the reader consume about 150 mA per hour, resulting in about 8 hours of battery life.
The DR doing nothing at all lasts about 5.5 hours or about 235 mA per hour. We know this isn't due to a faulty battery, because allovertheglobe got entirely consistent power drain from an external battery pack, see Power on the go - one practical solution. Perhaps karel is talking about the, unreleased, DR1000. Does anyone know how much power turning off Wacom saves?
