What's the "real world" battery life of Zoom H6 with one +48v phantom powered mic?

Anyone been using this unit regularly? Assuming everything is off except for one XLR input powering a +48v microphone, what's the usage we can expect, roughly?

A battery powered H4n couldn't get more than about +/-30 minutes, as we all know.

I got 3.5 hours with four P48 mics and the XY module all tracking at the same time. So one P48 mic would somewhat better than that.

Whoah. Serious? 3.5 hours with all that?

Very, very impressive. If I got that amount with a single P48 mic and nothing else I'd be a happy camper.

Thanks.
