I once made a six-hour exposure (intentional) with an OM-2.
That was the last exposure that set of batteries ever made... :-)

Long time exposures are better made with an OM body with
a mechanically-governed shutter (OM-1x or OM-3x).  Unlike
their electronically-controlled siblings, their shutters
don't rely on battery power to remain open.
