Intuitively it makes sense that a regulated light -- let's use the EverLED bulb as an example -- will run longer using more cells, such as 4AA vs. 2AA, possibly because the higher voltage available will cause the regulator to demand less current from the batteries. It also makes sense that two parallel strings of 2AA (2x2AA for short) will run longer than 2AA since the parallel strings effectively double the power capacity of the light.
But which is the better of the two strategies to lengthen the runtime of a regulated light, 4AA or 2x2AA?
