Game Boy Pocket Battery Life

[imthemaid]

Do any of you use NiMH batteries with your Game Boy Pocket? If so, what's your battery life like? I'm using 750mAh Eneloops and only getting about 3 hours.

After the GB's dead, the batteries still have a lot of juice, but maybe the voltage is too low at that point to keep the Game Boy running?

There's an operating range. When the voltage drops below a certain point, whatever it's powering stops working.

NiMH batteries shouldn't change much in voltage as they drain, but they start at a lower voltage than alkaline to begin with.
