How many hours will my DS battery last on a Supercard Mini-SD? Thanks.

quoted from immortalninja
"Ok did a proper test this time with all the same settings.
And it clocked in at 4hrs 22Mins.
So in summary so far:

All using the same SuperCard MiniSD and the same battery leaving SuperMarioKart
Full Brightness and max vol through headphones:

UnFLashed DS
Orginal Cart: 5hrs 10Mins
SuperKey in DS Slot: 4hrs 15Mins
SuperKey Removed: 4hrs 22Mins

FLASHED DS
DS Slot Empty: 4hrs 20 Mins
DS Slot with Cart: 4hrs 24 Mins
Using SuperCard Lite: 4hrs 24 Mins

So I conclude that having a flashed ds or superKey makes bugger all difference to battery life during normal play...for my DS.
I'm quite sure it makes a difference to the sleep mode though.
Not sure how I'm going to test that unless the difference is significantly different....."

On the lowest setting, which IMO is plenty good enough for indoors, the DSL is supposed to last for up to 16 hours... so probably about 13 with a flashcart+nopass.  Sure makes PSP's battery life sound like crap...

isn't it like 19? atleast thats what nintendo advertises.

Yes for a low tech gba game rom on the lowest setting you may get 19 hours, but with an average action DS game you would expect half of that.
