To those who have received their "recall" replacement battery from Geoman, can you please comment on how much run-time you are getting on High mode? I use High mode exclusively at night on my Magicshine 900 headlight, and I presume many other bicyclists do too.

I ask this question because my "recall" battery yields only about 2 hrs run-time on High.

The two batteries I got from Geoman in 2009/2010 would go 3.5 hrs on High Mode when new. The battery I got from Nova Bike Lights on eBay still goes 3.5 hrs on High even after 6+ months and 75+ recharging cycles. None of these 3 batteries required any special conditioning to achieve this performance from the first time used.

Magicshine specified a 3 hr run-time on High mode for these 4400ma batteries, likewise for the GMG 4500ma battery.

I realize that sometimes new batteries need to go through a few charge/discharge cycles to reach maximum performance, but my Geoman recall battery is giving me only 120-130 minutes run-time consistently after 3 cycles now, and I'm starting to think I got a dud.

Thanks in advance for useful feedback.
