Keeping t'wireless on for a bit longer

I'm sure I've read on here that some of you can keep your radio on for a hour or more. My disco3 managed yonks (it flattened the battery once!) but the new one barely managed 10 mins before shutting down which is pretty annoying.

Any tips?

Surely having it switch off, or requesting you start the engine, is preferable to a flat battery?
