I have also found the small AEI screens can run off as little as 3.5 volts. The drain off 3 AA's is about .1" volts per hour.

Testing this for possible Li-Ion powered nPods.

Yeah and I'll send you a "Get Well" card to the hospital.

That screen you have there Ben that thing sips amps. That would be an awsome screen for anything from the N64 and older.

Imagine the battery life you could get with a Li-ION, that screen and a NOAC (which I think consumes <100ma?)!!

But if you plan on mass producing it, you may want to stick with AAs.

he could buy tons of lipolys in bulk from battery space and save some cash. but would the NOAC run on 3.7 volts also?

li-poly would also increase hi profit margin (doubleing the price you know :wink: )

Hey Ben; seeing as the deadline has been postponed a bit, how 'bout just telling us what the portable is!

Look, we know it's probably gonna be a C64p, but nothing's for sure until Ben confirms it; just lookin' for that confirmation is all.
