Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!

Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.

RULES:

Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:

Do not be a jerk.

- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.

- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

I used a modern 3000mA lithium ion battery which provides about 60 hours of music playback. That’s about 2 hours per day which is much more than I use!

60 hours is two and a half days.

Well yes, but most people aren’t listening to music 24/7

battery life is always measured in terms of continuous playback, not user defined usage

That’s not how battery life on these sort of devices is usually reported.

imadethis new way of reporting battery life!

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It’s a three hundred day battery if you listen for five minutes a day.

There is some precedent for trying to estimate typical usage… Maybe in the lightbulb world.

Probably the wrong way to calculate it in the audio world, but the imadethis comment made up for it.

Brilliant deduction

How much is that in watt-hours?
