This runtime plot is for a Universal Battery Holder (UBH) with a KL-1 head using 2x123 Sure Fire Li Batteries.

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 your actual batttery milage may vary from that indicated by this runtime plot.

This 5 hour run time compared to earlier plots of 4 1/4 hours is consistent with your observed 7 3/4 hours with 3 cells.

The additional 2 3/4 hours run time from one cell vs. the 2 1/2 hours per cell with two cells is a modest gain from the lower current load.
