I get the following times off the 555/four HS50 setup (all with a reserve
margin remaining):

Four cell 50 MAh pack - 20 minutes
Four cell 100 MAh NiMH pack (same size/weight as the 50 MAh NiCADs) - 30
minutes

No testing with three cell packs, but I would assume similar times.  I have
some 150 MAh NiMH cells (also the same size/weight as the 50 MAh cells) that
I'm going to try soon.  I expect 40-45 minutes from those.
