and somehow get it to stay powered for so many hours.

You can plug it into an outlet to power it.

In most of the classrooms I've been to, there's like one outlet for every 10 people. That's not a reliable option, especially if you pack classes back to back like I did.

I can't say I've ever been to classes that have that issue or have heard anyone with a similar complaint.

If it's really that much of a problem for your specific school, class, or just you (for some reason), then it can easily be remedied with a power strip, or several if that's really how bad it is.

I'm reluctant to take your word at face value, though. Lots of hyperbole going on on these forums.

Ah thank you, why did I not think of that easy solution? I always power it via my hamster at home.
