I am looking at an ad barker and want to know what the longest possible battery life would be. Any types of droids that use less power than others and can different types of droids store more batteries? Any help on the issue would be great. Thanks.

They all use the same amount of battery life, the only thing that can change it is the types of modules in it. I know entertainer effects and auto-repair drain the battery at twice the rate, not sure about the ad barking though.

How long does a normal one last?

If you don't have him patrol, but jsut stand there, he will last longer.

Ent droids don't use double battery power thankfully, lets face it us ents are way too poor to afford that many batteries anyway 
My droids batteries all last about an hour, cept my combat with auto heal, its like 20-30 mins

ah, you're right. For some reason I'm always convinced they do, even though I watch them drain at the same rate as my power droid I usually have out in the cantina.

Unfortunately, there is no real way to charge a droid while AFK either, short of a 2-person method where both people are using power droids. While that would work indefinitely, it's a pain-in-the-keester because it does require 2 people.

No, its a GOD thing you can't recharge droids afk. AFK recharging would mean that all those AFK doc bots would now be able to always buff as good as a live doc, and merchants would just park themselves next to thier barker droids to keep them AFK recharged, since you can't ignore a droid. Here's an idea for you, PLAY the game, stop trying to get some robot to play it for you.

You can ignore a Droid, you jsut need to ignore theo wner, then you can't hear a droid.
Don't hate the Barker Droids, it takes advertising 4 to get something that anybody else can do for free with AFK spam.
Merchants should be the ONLY ones who can afk spem.
