The Universal has no backup battery that I am aware of, and yet when the battery is taken out or swapped, the real-time clock keeps running. This is very useful, and I suppose it is powered for a time by the charge in a capacitor.

Can anyone confirm that it is a capacitor that keeps the clock ticking? Also, anyone know how long the battery can be removed before the clock eventually stops?
