Epson doesn't claim a specific per-page battery life rating, but I scanned hundreds of pages on a single charge during my testing. The scanner charges faster, of course, when it's turned off. Epson told me that when the scanner is in use, the battery charges from AC outlets in just a couple hours USB 3.0 takes about four hours, and USB 2.0 needs around 20 hours. ![]() How fast the battery charges depends on the power source, and, like many other recent portable models, the ES-300WR will run and charge from AC or USB power sources at the same time. ![]() While lighter machines like the manual-feed Xerox Duplex Travel Scanner, the Visioneer Patriot P15, and Epson's own DS-320 Portable Duplex Document Scanner and WorkForce ES-200 are smaller, lighter, and easier to carry, they don't have batteries, meaning that you'll be tethered to an AC outlet. The Doxie Q's ADF, on the other hand, holds only eight pages and to scan both sides of two-sided pages, you must scan one side of the originals, then turn them over manually to scan the other sides. The former, like the ES-300WR and its ES-300W twin, comes with a 20-sheet automatic document feeder (ADF) that scans both sides of two-sided pages simultaneously, in a single pass. Some other portable scanners with rechargeable batteries include the slightly smaller and lighter Editors' Choice Canon imageFormula P-215II Scan-Tini, and the much smaller and lighter Apparent Doxie Q. ![]() Much of its height and weight comes from a built-in rechargeable battery. When the portable model is closed up and ready for the road, it measures 2.6 by 11.3 by 3.5 inches (HWD) and weighs 2.9 pounds. Note that if you prefer a less mobile desktop document scanner, Epson also offers an Accounting Edition of the WorkForce ES-500WR Wireless Document Scanner, which is a little faster, bigger, and heavier. If collecting financial data on the road and exporting it for use in your accounting application-eliminating the need to enter it manually-sounds attractive, you should consider the ES-300WR. This latest iteration of Epson's flagship portable document scanner lists for only $100 more, but its business-centric software, as well an overhauled and renamed document-capture interface, make it more accurate and bookkeeping-friendly, thereby increasing its overall value. The highly portable Epson WorkForce ES-300WR Wireless Document Scanner - Accounting Edition ($399.99) is an enhanced version of the Editors' Choice WorkForce ES-300W we reviewed last year. ![]()
