I know from personal experience that the CMUcam will chew through a backup battery in about an hour. I'm not sure if the servos run off it, or if the CMUcam is actually eating up all of that juice, but the camera is almost unusable after an hour of twitching around tracking. I don't know about you, but I'm changing the backup battery out after each match.
