I was thinking more like a year or two worth on one battery.... Kind of like the Nitek3, Nitek He, and LiquidVision, at least for the secondary. Not likely for the primary driving the solenoid, but hey, it's a wish list.

Doubtful it would ever happen.. driving the HUD takes a bit more power than you would think to get good brightness out of leds..
The liquidvision only gets about 40hours give or take..

There are things that could lengthen the life of the secondary, but not on the order of a year if you really wanted all the features to remain.. if we kept the draw of the leds to 30ma max thats still under 100 hours of use (forgetting everything else)..
