Expected battery life is
=
1700/1782
= 0.95 year
Note that battery life is shortened during configuration or diagnostics. When the serial cable
is connected to the 505K, the module does not revert to sleep mode and the power
consumption is considerably increased. These periods should be minimised if you are using a
battery pack.
