Marcum shuttle

Ran my lx6 all day from 8-4 yesterday in pretty harsh conditions . I use the black backlight or night set up, full screen and the side scale. I ended up at 55% battery life. I am impressed with the shuttle in every way. I figured the 30 hour run time was not realistic but if I can run near 2 full days on 1 charge that will be a huge improvement over the old heavy battery system.

You are correct, the 40 hours isn’t for the LX7. I heard from a couple marcum guys at the Milwaukee Ice Show that the lithium with an lx7 could give 14-16 hrs of effective use. I’ve had mine outside for 2 8-10 hr trips in cold (no shelter) and have seen similar results – 50 and 70% life left.
