Default PT SL batteries

How long have you been able to go after your transmission icon starts flashing?
Bit miffed that it looks like I need new batteries after only ~150 hrs of use... but I guess they're prettty cheap.

Once the icon starts to flash I put in new batteries right away, so I can't answer the first question. But your experience mirrors mine, about 150 hours is all I've been getting from the SL hub batteries. I suspect the manual shows a longer expected life based on experience with the PT Pro. I think the SL's power draw is higher due to the transmission path through the carbon fiber windows. (Does make me wonder what battery life will be like with the wireless PT 2.4.)
