I don't think 3D really effects battery power since it really is a display thing that doesn't utilize anything extra.

On any console, power usage also depends on the games you play. Lower end 3DS games can last in the 8-10 hour range. Higher end games (Mario Kart in a 6-8 player local multiplayer match) much much shorter.



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
