I use 1800mAH NiMh and charge them about once a week. I usually turn it on
about 6 hours a day.

The same type of batteries in my Yupiteru MVT-7100 have to be charged
every
other day under the same conditions.

Don't know what the current draw is on the Pro-95, but I have had up to
18
hours under normal usage, (backlighting off) on the Radio Shack
batteries.

The manual says 90ma when squelched. What does it draw when it is
scanning and there is audio?

Well, the back panel says to use a 300mA external supply, so
*theoretically* it shouldn't draw more than 300mA when charging dead
batteries with the light on and audio present.
