Sennheiser EW 172 G2 or the X2 XDR95?

Hello Guys

I know this is an old thread but I tried the X2 XDS 95 (stomp box). It seemed great and the battery life was great. I was in an arena and once outside it started to stammer. I have a XDS PLUS on order. I figured it was a better unit with the anti jamming feature. I was told at the store that the rack mount version uses more battery life than the plus, then I heard they are vertually the same unit. I am really concerned about the battery life a the units boast they are good for 5.5 hours aprox and now I am hearing some people are getting 1-1.5 hours. That's not 5.5 aprox. Does anyone have any experience with the battery life? You guys helped me last time directing me to the unit and I am thankful for that as it was great! Thank you in advance!

I just played a gig, three sets - 9-closing, put a fresh battery in at the start, and it was at about 2/3 power by the end.
