Labradar battery question

Just got my Labradar today and wondering about battery usage

I have a 12000 mAh battery pack and six rechargeable AA batteries already. For 3 - 4 hour range sessions will I need another battery pack?

Congrats, it's a cool tool / toy... if you can get it setup to work with your setup well. Mine was a pain initially. Once I got my ballistics I didn't really need it any more.

I used a 22,000 maH battery, and after a couple of hours it was only down about 25%. So at that rate, it would deplete your 12K maH battery in 2-3 hours.

So I would carry a second 12K maH battery until you get yourself dialed in.

thanks. I have 12 rechargeable AA's that I use in various toy drone/copter remotes so between those and the charge bank I have I should be golden till I pick up a second charge bank

I figure it cannot be more of a pain than my optical which is getting into the habit of dropping shots unless the light is just so.

I use Cortina's 100 yard load development so good velocity data the most important factor in my load development
