Q5The technical specifications state that  : “The operating time of the equipment on a single set of battery pack must not be less than four (4) hours.” Would it be acceptable to offer an instrument with a battery operating time of 2.5 hrs (full operation) and 4 hours (on battery saving mode)?
 
A5: The technical specs did not elaborate on the type of “operating” time, therefore it is acceptable to have a 4hr operation on at least one particular “operating” mode.
