Flight Bag Power Capacity
Trying to figure out how much battery capacity I need in my flight bag (the crappy 2.1A-shared Insignia just ain’t cutting it anymore). These aren’t ideal tests and I’ll redo them at some point with a work load going on while sipping USB power (which will hopefully recharge while providing operating wattage), but, here goes (readings taken with a Klein ET-920).
13:31 Dead 9-10W
14:10 17% 7.8W 1142 mAh
15:08 44% 7.4W 2720 mAh
16:50 84% 5W 4729 mAh
17:52 98% 5W 5387 mAh
18:14 Full 1.3W 5500 mAh ("Not Charging")
So about 5500 mAh (realistically, with charging loss, ~8,000 mAh capacity on the charging pack), and requires about 10W at maximum to recharge. I’ll do a test with the screen on, connected to the Stratus GPS unit over WiFi, ASAP.
