Just a quick question, if you are using the 3.6v lithium types -how long are your batteries lasting in your VR3?

ones like this-

Thanks.

Not as long as I had hoped. I am guessing but possibly 50% more than a Duracell 1.5v alkamine.

I think there may be different types, some designed for low current / long term usage. Which the VR3 is not.

I am currently trying an Eveready 1.5V lithium designed for digital cameras. There are designed for high current usage, so I'll see how that goes.
