How many amps is a GBA?

Well I suppose that makes us all very clever people.
Nice.
Nice.
Meh, I was right.
Help. :D

Yey!!!
That word.
It rocks.
I have totally forgotten what the hell it means.
But it rocks.

See Azul, I told you I'd be able to use that word some day!

hehe - nice one. You are nearly there Crazy'. Tphi, one word matey:
colloquialism - stop squinting...I know it's a big word, get a dictionary out.
Next...gridloch (cute) - easy tiger, I was emphasisng the fact that an intelligent and well worded question would encourage an intelligent answer... so instead of telling me off, how 'bout getting the chap the info he needs hmmm?
Here it is then son:
GBA:
Power Consumption: Approximately 0.6W. The batteries are in parallel I think, rather than serial. This means that there will be less overall discharged in percentage terms and so will have a longer life.
Here is a good link to help you out:
http://www.gizmology.net[space ]batteries.htm
Using their equation: P=E x I thus I=P/E. This will give us, according to the facts:
2 batteries in parallel rated at 1.5 volts = 1.5 volts. Bear in mind the output is twice the amps of a single cell.
According to sources the GBA consumes ~0.6 watts.Using above equation:-
If P=0.6 and E=1.5 then I = 0.4 amperes. Now this is the voltage rating of the batteries in parallel against the GBA's consumption in watts, so you need an ~0.4 amperes to power a GBA.
and if you are really a tech head read this:

okay so the formatting messed up...
the amps are 0.2 or 2MA
