Default Battery life when running a transponder

Ive got a Garmin 320 with ACK 30 encoder that is ready to go in the
Cherokee. Perhaps tonight I will be able to get everything wired up and
check the current draw. Im expecting about 1.5 amps between the
transponder and encoder. That will drain my battery moderately fast, but
my "long" flights tend to only be about 3 or 4 hours anyway.
