You should be good all day and more with only one 14'8 4s battery. I wanted something that would last me for two days so got the 6500mAh Lipo Batt.

I already have that but i don't know if i'll be able to hear the beeping from the watertight container inside the kayak?? Do you have experience with it?
Also if it goes off, i can't reach it to turn it off and it will continue to drain the battery.
