Modded SL Stinger Runtime Question

[this_is_nascar]

I wasn't sure to put this here or in the battery section, so I flipped a coin. Anyway, I have a stock Stinger that I started running on a Strion bulb with the stock battery pack. I also have a another Stinger that runs a TL-3 bulb in the 2xPila 168A configuration. In regards to throw, they do about the same. As far a total light out the front, in both hotspot and sidespill, the modded TL-3 version is the clear winner.

My question for you techno guys is which do you believe will yield the most runtime from a single charge? I'm sure you guys have a magic formula that you plug bulb specs vs. battery capabilities to spit out a guestimate.

I never ran mine for any length in that configuration. with a h1499 I was getting
a guestimate hour and a half. I use a tl-3 with h1499 and 17500 and i get right at an hour. the tl-3 bulb draws less.

You should get over 90 minutes of run time with TL-3 in this set up and about an hour with 1499

Thanks for the feedback. Would anyone venture a guess for the Strion in stock Stinger runtime?

I've run a Strion bulb in a stock Stinger for well over a year right now, and in normal usage haven't noticed any significant difference in the frequency of charging, though I haven't run a complete run-time test to get the exact runtime minutes. Both the Strion and the Stinger bulbs are nominally rated at around 6 watts.

Thanks for the feedback. Would anyone venture a guess for the Strion in stock Stinger runtime?
