THE LORD OF THE RINGS TEST

---

It took me many, many hours of DVD ripping, AVI to 3GP converting and last but not least putting the damn files onto memory cards. But I have successfully been able to put all of "The Lord of The Rings" trilogy onto SD cards (three cards lol 2 x 2GB, 1 x 4GB of different makes) in order to test my theory of whether the aftermarket 2400mAh battery (bought from eBay for 20GBP) has the power to last the duration of the trilogy, or not. Well read below for my findings:

I was first introduced to this theory by the merchant who sold me the battery who quoted that you can watch full length movies with the extra capacity . . . so heres how it went

The Lord Of The Rings: The Fellowship of The Ring

First SD card in was my friends 2GB SanDisk Secure Digital Card, I must admit that I did turn off the phone function(s) during the duration of this test in order as to not be disturbed. None the less I watched the entire film, and after it the battery was still charged, so straight onto the next part.

The Lord Of The Rings: The Two Towers

For this I used my own 4GB Transcend Secure Digital Card. I personally felt that as I was using the extended version of the film that the battery would fail during it, but I was shocked to find that the battery had only drained to 33% by time it had finished! I was desperate to see how long it would go on for in the third and final part

The Lord Of The Rings: The Return Of The King

In this part of the test I used my own 2GB SanDisk Secure Digital Card. I knew the poor battery wouldnt last this entire film from the start as it had held it's charge suprisingly well all day, so the movie started and the battery packed in at around the point where Aragorn goes to get the ghost army it was a real shame as I had enjoyed myslef so far lol

So there you go the 2400mAh battery lasted 7/10ths of the LOTR test. Pretty good I must say.

I know it was quite sad of m but at least now we all know it's capabilities.

Also I have to add that the battery has no memory, therefore after this test it was back to full capacity ofter charging

thanks,

Ryan

Turning off radio could do you best

See how it does with the radio on, it would be interesting as this is one of the reasons the 2i was bought in the first place wasn't it? Be a good guage to see how much power the radio uses too, in fractions of a trilogy.

Signal Booster?

what the heck is that? :P

i don't know what kind of battery did he use , but it doesn't last that long, i also did buy that 2400 batery and is a fraud! it only last no more than 4 hours, in other words, it's actually the same as the 1300 battery
how sad!!! :roll:

very good.

surely the trilogy used should have been the most important trilogy of recent time.

A NEW HOPE
THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK
THE RETURN OF THE JEDI.

I'm going to put these films onto sd card and see IF MY EXEC HAS THE FORCE

maybe u bought a crappy one?

Since i am into eletronics il have my say. Standard batterys are lithion 3.7 V DC 1250 miliamps per hour. The better ones are lithion 3.7 V DC 2400 miliamps per hour. Thats obvously 1150 mAh more, nearly double. Therefore by my calculations the 2400 mAh battery should last about 0.7 times longer than the 1250. If not, your battery is faulty. :wink:

If you're into electronics then you should know that mAh stands for milliamp hours and not milliamps per hour. :wink: They are very different things.

mAh is a measure of the store of energy of the battery, but I agree it should last substantial longer than the 1400mAh one.
