And I've just made a discovery. My old batteries are Yuasa, but EE's website
says that they use both Yuasa and Panasonic batteries in these lights. The
Yuasa battery (NP2.6-12FR) is rated at 2.6 AH at 20 amp, and the Panasonic
equivalent (LC-V123R4P) are the same physical size, but are rated at 3.4 AH
at 20 amps. That's a considerable improvement - 30% extra burn time.

Anyone ever noticed longer burn times with the Panasonic batteries?
