Run time from different hump packs?

[momofx]

I was just wondering, what run time will I get from a 3000mah hump pack and also a 5000mah hump pack? Just tryin to see if I should get a higher capacity one...

my 3000mah humppacks last me a couple tanks and this is over a 2 or 3 week period.

A 5000 mah will give you twice as long run time before charging.

Thanks guys - I could not figure out why my lhs told me not to run more than 40 mins on a 3000mah hump pack??? I knew it seemed too less...

yeah, i get atleast three full tanks on a 3000 pack. matter of fact, a full tank run uses about 400 to 600 mah. i don't go over three tanks though cuz my packs are getting older, and as you know, nimh build a memory over time and crystalize which shortens capacity. its good to cycle your pack every now and then to reduce the memory effect. it will greatly increase pack life.
