Re: lowest power AP

I can't really talk about the lowest power as there is a lot of stuff 
coming onto the market. However I have played with an RG1000 setup to run 
off a small nicad battery pack. I took it out of its case and ran it 
with  1000 ma batteries. got about 1.5 to 2 hrs. A 5V. AP should do better. 
And NIMH batteries have a higher energy Density.
