Got a BLU delivered this afternoon :p but I'm at work until 10pm so I'll have have to wait until I get home to have a go! :angry:
Just curious, how long roughly is the battery life on a BLU compared to my NLU.
 
Depends realy on the Batteries you use and the CPU speed, I get around 6 - 9 hours
 
Well, on some cheap rechargables, I get 5 hours at 156mhz with the backlight on.
 
I'm using 2x 2400mAh rechargables at the moment with 2 constantly on charge which I swop every 5hrs play or so (Idon't play for 5hrs in one go when I'm at work - well nearly... ;) ).
Thanks to those who replied - 6-9hrs should do nicely.
 
It seems to me like the battery lifetime depends not only on capacity, but also on brand... GP should be fine ;)
 
well, i don't know much about the BLU, but on my FLU, using a 500mA adapter, i can't overclock to 166mhz AND turn on the light at the same time, which means that doing so probably eats up more like 600mA/hr. i don't know how much regular AAs hold, but the only rechargables i have are 1000mA, so that's more like <4hrs playing some cpu-demanding game :(

i wish i could get a pack of 2400mA NiMHs
