What kind of run-time can I expect on a set of fully-charged batteries when running Rockbox?
A7: Archos players: For the stock 1500 mAh cells, from 6 hours to 8 hours, depending on which charger was used (see Q3) and the bitrate you use (higher bitrate means more harddisk runtime). It depends a lot on the condition of the batteries. With 2000 mAh batteries, you should reach about 10 hours or more. If you have a modified AJB with 8 MB, you can reach playing times of up to 16 hours with 2100 mAh batteries. Other players: It currently varies widely, depending on the player.
