Was this back in 1989 was it?

So what good is that? We're talking about the batteries at the time.

Well, not sure about in 1989, but in the mid 90s with the revised play it loud series(not pocket) I got well over 10 hours on 4 AAs. Not sure if the play it loud series had any differences besides cosmetic though, and I'm not sure how much battery technology improved from 1989 to mid 90s.(though I was using just regular old alkaline batteries, surely they had those in 1989?)

It lasted about 8-10 hours... and if you used rechargeable batteries, it was more like 3.

Already said alkaline lasted from 8 to 10 hours Rechargable technology has changed and improved quite a lot in the last 16 years...
