In theory it will only run 1/2 as long.

In practice, Hmmm I would guess about the same, but +/- a good bit.

With 750 mAh, your scanner will run for about three hours. Why do you want less? You want MORE current-hours... 2300 mAh will run it for almost 16 hours.

Get the 2300s at a Wal Mart (cheap!) or a camera store or something... I bought some Quantaray 2800s with an ultra-fast charger. Works great.

And you want DOUBLE-A (AA), _NOT_ triple-A (AAA).

Thanks for the quick response. I'm using 2500mAh for my digital needs now. this is for the 250d going on vacation.

You might want to look into battery packs from Primecell:

When did the 250D start taking loose batteries as opposed to the propriatary battery pack?

Someone found that a AAA 4-pack will fit in the compartment on the 250.
A AA 4-pack will not.
