(04-23-2020 03:07 PM)Dave Britten Wrote: Out of curiosity, has anybody analyzed the expected battery life of the older 12Cs that use 3 LR44 cells compared to the Chinese models that use a single CR2032? This model was sold just prior to the ARM-based version that uses 2 CR2032s, so it should have theoretically about the same power requirements, given that it still uses a Nut CPU. Dave, I can't speak for the LR44 cells in the early 12c's because my oldest 12c is from 2001 and it has the single 2032. I have two of the newer fast 12c+'s with 2 2032's as well. These 2032 cells last a long time. I can't remember when or if the original cells needed replacement. The LR44 cells in my 17b and 17bii's do need replacement more frequently than the 2032's. I buy them in bulk on Amazon at reasonable prices. I have recently acquired a 19b and 19bii that use the N cells, I'm anxious to see how long they last because they are a pain in the arse to change (side batt door, but in good shape). |
