I've run my screen on 7.2V before, as well as others have. Theres no reason it shouldn't work for you. marshallh was just telling you the reccomended voltage for the screen, but 7.2v ought to work.

I am running a SNES off of a 9.6 volt Ni-Cd battery. It lasts around 3 hours on the SNES alone. I have not tested the screen yet (still finding a PS1 screen cheap) but i would say use 2 9.6 volt recharchable batteries (7.2 i believe may be better for heat and if the screen cant take 9.6) in parallel (i think...) so that it is still 9.6 volts and use that for both. Should give you a lot of play time.
