Battery data
Note1: the energy storage capacity of batteries and even their T4 intrinsic safety rating is affected by
ambient temperature. The data in Table 2 is for an ambient temperature of 20 °C (68 °F).
Note2: the use of the back light and the IR Data Port will dramatically shorten the battery life.
