MacBook pro 15 battery playing local video

[Crowdx44]

Hi all,
So I am considering moving from Windows to a MacBook Pro 15, my question is how long does the battery last playing local 1080p video. With my Dell Xps I was getting about 7 hours of local video at 40% brightness which was more than bright enough when watching movies on transatlantic flights.
Has any used the MacBook Pro on airplane power?
Thanks for any advice.

You better try the notebook forum. This is the desktop Mac Pro forum.
