I have a few MCP-E 1K and 2K systems. Some with one battery other with more. What I wanted to know is; is there a formaula to figure out the runtime if you know the measured amp draw? I'm drawing anywhere between 3 and 7 amps depending on the location. I also have the same question with CPE units.

program that receives the messages some function that turn on the
RS232 after the PIC has all the messages ok these messages are saved
