Hacking Bad battery life on R4i Gold 3DS RTS?

[Jacobf0303]

Hi, I have a DS Lite with the aforementioned flash cart, I was testing battery life with a Mario Party DS Rom and I only got 4 hours and 18 mins. what gives? Also, I got this DS in December Brand new sealed on amazon so the battery has absolutely no use other than the charge it got in the factory and my 1-2 months of use.

Thanks!

Yes, with a r4 card, the battery runs out quickly.

This can't be right because I have used all of my R4 flashcarts (this includes the R4i Gold 3DS Plus) on my DS Phat, DS Lite, DSi, and 3DS consoles and it never made them die quickly. The only flashcarts that have been known to drain the battery a little quicker were the SuperCard DSTWO flashcarts.
