Re: Charge life on a cycle trip.

I've been checking my TT and it seems to run for about 2-2 1/2 hours 
on a charge (with Bluetooth), even with the back-light on, so I 
decided to go with one of the the dinguses on e-Bay (thanks grmann, I 
should have thought of E-Bay)(or, possibly, just 4 AA cells - to be 
tested) I believe that it would be lighter than the Power To Go (& a 
charger)/charge.  That and a light weight but low power flexible 
solar system to extend it.  I also plan on getting a new, fresh, 
battery for the TT, maybe one of the 1100 mah ones.

Ian, I think (abusing my poor, lonely brain cell <Grin>) that a self-
contained GPS (which would still require a charger for the 
180mile/8MPH = 22 hours of ride time.) would be heavier than my GPS 
with TT which is my major consideration.  Besides, I have used my TT 
and GlobalSat for a whole day (16hrs) on vehicular road trips.  And, 
by the way, I'll have you know that I don't suffer from insanity, I 
enjoy every minute of it! <Grins!> And I don't need no stinkin` 
trainin` wheel on my cycle, but thanks anyway. Again, <Grins>

Thanks to all who responded, here and by e-mail.  Of course, I will 
let you know how things turn out so don't be surprised when this 
thread shows up again sometime next year.
