I've just been doing some tests to see how the battery life is on my 269. The screen brightness is the biggest killer.

If you turn the screen brightness to minimum (still quite useable) and also hit the mute button you can get quite good battery life:-

Fully charged 10:01am
1 red light after 2hrs 15mins
2 red lights after 3 hrs 20 mins
still going at 16:05!
Thats over 6 hours!

Now this is with the unit just sitting on my desk (although its registering 8 sats). I wonder how much greater the current drain is when its actually moving? Anyone driven for any length of time with one unplugged?
