Looking for a TurboCat battery

[quattro]

Does anyone have a TurboCat bottle battery that I could borrow for the Wausau24 race?  I'm considering doing the solo race but I'm a battery short to be able to make it through the night.

1 battery short=how many hours of burn time short?

The time between sunset and sunrise will be about 10 hours, the three batteries I have should get me about 6 hours of burn so the additional battery should be enough to get me through the darkness if I'm really conservative and assume that I'll probably take a lengthy break at some point in the night.  Honestly I would like to have two more bottle batteries and an additional flat pack for the head lamp to be on the safe side.

I don't have any TurboCat stuff but was thinking of maybe someone would be able to loan you a whole lightset.  I don't really have anything free that would help much more than 1.5 hours...

Maybe check into renting one from NiteRider?  I think they've got some to rent for the event but it may be too late to reserve one?

I've got a cateye double shot and triple shot.  Let me know if you want to score either or both.

[Nate Woolever]

That would do it...I'm still getting 4+ hours out of my Double Shot.

I might take you up on that Dave, I really like the light from the turbocat but the burn time and weight of the batteries are far from ideal for all-night rides.
