To answer your questions:

1 - Not all SD cards are created equal when it comes to power consumption. Consult the datasheet (not to be confused with marketing brochure) for various SD cards to compare.

2 - micro-SD (physical package aside) is compatible. Simply choose an adapter.

Some other things to consider:

- Widgets and gadgets often have several modes of operation and power consumption can possibly vary depending upon mode of operation. Does any of the information you have discuss or mention modes of operation?

- Is there anywhere in the information you have which gives the power requirements (eg. 12v @ 100mA)? That would give an idea of expected run-time on the batteries. Sometimes there is even a label on the unit which has this information.
