I once again noted the time to exhaust both batteries. The units didn't perform quite as well as the first time. The 15:21 was a stretch target, and seemed to be a fluke. This time, I would categorize the usage as moderate. The first time, there were several "idle periods" where I didn't use the wireless much. During this test, I made much heavier use for general surfing, email, server admin, updating the blogs, etc. I did probably 6-10 speed tests, played with Woopra, Google Analytics, and more. This I would call typical usage for me. Again this time, I couldn't run in a continuous unbroken time slot. But as noted, this is probably realistic usage. The units ran an equally impressive <b>13 hours and 06 minutes</b>. Here are the start and stop times (08/24-25) for this test: <li>08:41 to 16:24 = 7:43</li> <li>19:16 to 22:36 = 3:20</li> <li>08:36 to 10:39 = 2:03</li> At some point 22:30 last night, the Tekkeon battery had run down. I didn't notice when it was exhausted. It goes without saying I am quite pleased with this performance. I’ve just completed my second full run of the PHS300 / Tekkeon MP2550.

The 15 hours and 21 minutes is truly impressive. I can think of many situations, both at home and business where these products would be a very valuable commodity.
