This runtime plot is for an ARC LS(Second) with a 123 battery tube. After four hours it was still generating 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 15 minutes per division.

Be aware that your actual battery mileage may vary from that indicated by this runtime plot.

Yes! And where possible, the same make of battery.

The distance is 7 inches, which is the distance from the edge of the desk to the wall. The light is placed so the lens of the light is even with the edge of the desk. That way nothing interfers with the beam pattern. The lights are kept at their narrowest focus.
