That apparently was with batteries; much less when you leave the battery
pack out.

Reading through the document, however, I wonder if this was ever a real
product and not just an engineering prototype (if that).   CDC did quite
a number of "pie in the sky" proposals back then.  Pity that they're not
documented.
