Battery life exceeded 5 hours on AA alkaline.
With the supplied battery packs, life exceeded 8 hours. The supplied packs provide 4.8 volts, which exceed 4.5 volts on alkaline and provide a more stable voltage curve.

That doesnt mean anything...is that standby time? transmit time? or what?

Radios obviously use a lot more power when they are transmitting.

If you have Midlands get this Works with Midlands and you can use a Bravo headset.

Midlands. I've tried talkabouts and they always seem to fail on me. My midland radios are godly.

The radios have to constantly transmit to keep the freq hopping in sync. So I would imagine the battery life is with "regular" use

You probably can't keep a conversation going for 8 hours, but it should be more than sufficient to last you through any airsoft game.

Awesome. I just want them wot work with the Comtac style headsets, so I'm a bit worried as to whether or not there will be PTT issues with a dual earcup design, or one of the earcups will not have sound, etc. etc.

It is convenient to communicate using Walkie Talkie. There are quite a few models that support communication and other groups in the same group. Usually you select channels 1 through 8, then select sub-channels from 1 to 38, for a total of 8x 38 = 304 possible combinations. In medium or high-end models, you can select subchannel number 0, where you can listen to all subchannels of that channel. This feature is called a channel monitor.
