Battery question

Hi.

I'm thinking about buying a Supercard miniSD.. but the thing that worries me is that many people are saying that the Supercard drains the battery of the DS very fast when playing NDS roms. I've read that you only get about 4 hours from supercard while you get ~8 hours from M3. Is this true?
NDS roms is what matters... I don't plan on playing any GBA games or use any homebrew apps.

I don't own an M3 so I can't give a direct comparison.  I've never timed my battery life but it seems like I get at least six hours with my SCSD, probably more with the DS slot empty.  I think four hours is probably with superpass and frequent power cycles.
