Extended recording times...

I'm going to shoot an improvised scene in a few days and am wondering how long my 100a can be on and recording? Could I just leave it on record for a few hours nonstop (with switching tapes in between)?

Nouou,

Tape switching can be done more efficiently by using another camera as a slave unit. If you're interested, here's how:

Hook it up to a computer with a Time Lapse/Stop Motion program or just a big external hard drive and don't put any wear and tear on your heads. My longest TL was about 3 days.
