How long does that tend to last you?

I only use it for spot checking, here and there, so I really don’t know the full duration. I’m sure, cumulatively, probably a couple of hours. If you look on Amazon, I believe there are similar versions with more batteries, that will last longer

I purchased these batteries: Aluratek Portable Battery Charger with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0, 20000mAh. They work on my Flex units. With the flashy status lights running, I get about 50 or so hours. Each battery was about $33 with our state contract pricing. https://www.govconnection.com/product/a…
