This runtime plot is for an ARC AAA Turquoise. At the end of 10 hours the led was still putting out some light.

Equipment used is a photocell and a Radio Shack 22-805 multimeter with a PC interface that is using ScopeView software (V 1.08).

The vertical axis is in MA and the horizontal axis is 30 minutes per division.

Be aware that you actual battery millage may vary from that indicated by this runtime plot.

The step change at three and one half hours occured when I turned on the kitchen light!

Thanks again Roy. This confirms what I was suspecting, which is that the turquoise would stay bright longer.

If you need a real backwoods survival light, a turquoise or green LED is a nice thing to have.
