Manual White Bal: How long retained?

If you set the white balance manually on the PD 170, at what point do you "lose" that setting assuming you do not switch to tungsten or daylight in the interim, but if you power off, change tapes, etc?

I used mine to do an event on Friday night-hadn't used it for 3 days it still had the setting I used previously. As long as the internal battery is good it should hold the settings. If you're worried about it changing while you change tapes or eat or whatever don't worry, (be happy ;-O)
