The manufacturer claimed 11 days of light... but they were WRONG. ππ¦
I put the Manker E02 III to a real-world runtime test, pitting the included USB-C rechargeable AAA battery against a standard Lithium Primary. The results shocked me and revealed a major secret about battery capacity.
If you are building a survival kit or a bug-out bag, you need to see why "high-tech" isn't always better for maximum runtime.
Test Results:
Included USB-C Rechargeable: 8 Days, 11 Hours
Lithium Primary AAA: 15 Days, 11 Hours (371 Hours Total!)
Gear featured in this test:
π¦ The 15-Day Light (MC12): amzn.to/49A0A1D
π The Winning Battery (Lithium Primary): amzn.to/3NXVymU
π§’ The Optional Headband: amzn.to/4r0L2JV
