Before you operate the transceiver outside using a battery pack, it is important to know how long the battery pack will last. The operating times listed in the table below are measured under the following cyclic conditions:

TX: 6 seconds, RX: 6 seconds, Stand-by: 48 seconds

We recommend you carry extra battery packs with you, in case the battery pack becomes depleted.
