3000 or 5700mAh Battery?

Post by JayCanuck »

For those who have had the chance to build/hold/use the Raspiboy devices, which battery do you prefer and why? Is the weigh considerably more noticable in the 5700mAh battery that it outweights the bemefit?

Really curious to see what you guys say :)

I got the 5700mAh version almost double the battery life is worth a little extra weight. It's lighter then a game boy with 4 AA's If your going to be using it for a while why not get some more battery life. Plus you can kinda use it as a power bank it does have two usb ports.

Ive got the 5700 and in terms of weight its fine. People have said it feels top heavy but its fine for me.

The only people who can answer you question really would be someone who has both though. For me the extra battery life was a no brainer as its not like you're putting a massive amount of extra mass into it unless you are very very young or have tiny hands like Trump!
