Power Draw and Battery Curves

Battery life here is calculated using the estimated energy in two AA eneloop pro batteries (6.24 Wh). Times are rounded to the nearest 5 minute interval. I tested a handful of these configurations myself with brand new eneloop pro batteries (battery curves seen below) and the times roughly line up with the calculated values. I found that many settings yielded battery life a bit longer than calculated, so you can consider these estimations to be somewhat conservative (depending on how old your batteries are and how many cycles they've seen). I did one test with alkaline AA batteries (Energizer) and the battery life was cut by roughly 50%.

The low battery LED turns on when the voltage passes 2.3V. This represents roughly 5 to 7% battery left. The LED begins blinking when the voltage passes 2.1V, which represents less than 1% battery life remaining.

Battery life can range anywhere between ~5 hours and ~11 hours, depending on settings. The "medium" brightness test case below represents my preferred play settings, which yields 9 hours of gameplay.
