The number you need to be paying attention to for this build is the Amperage cutoff limiter on the Protected Circuit on the battery. The 5 Amp battery, the one you're currently using isn't working. You need the 10 Amp protected Circuit. A couple hundred MAH won't matter but a few minutes +/-. Your problem has been battery tripping. You won't be able to get any run time out of a battery that trips. I linked the battery that TCSS put out there specifically for these builds. Tim and the brains at TCSS know what they're doing, trust in the force.
