T22 Battery life?
What should the battery life be on a T22? I've got two batteries, I think one is broken, it won't really take or hold a charge, and the other one only holds it for between one and two hours. Is this normal? I bought it off of eBay, used. I'll be going on a >5 hour trip in a month or so, and I'm wondering if I should get a car inverter or a new battery?

Re: T22 Battery life?
You are not going to get 5 hours from 2 batteries
Count on only 4 then be surprised if its more than that.
You might be able to get 5 hours from 2 bottom batteries and the UltraBay 2000 slide in battery.
Here is the cheapest place I have found them

Thanks, man, I have better ways to spend my money than three new batteries, I'll go with the inverter.jronald wrote:You are not going to get 5 hours from 2 batteries

Re: T22 Battery life?
I liked using T30 batteries in T2x models.
T2x's used 10.8v 3.6 and 4.0AH.
T30 used 10.8v 4.4 AH.
Not much but at times every little bit helps.
