How long the battery lasts?Does it reset data during battery change?

I found the battery will last about 1 year. I have had to replace it 2x since I have owned it. the total hours/miles have not reset on me.

You can not recharge the batteries they are those flat round ones. Last about a year and the machine will not continue to collect data or give data once one of the batteries dies. I wish it was like a cell phone that said low battery and you had warning.

I've only had mine for about 3 months now, and have used it enough to log almost 700 miles on the road with no signs of a low battery yet. Not sure if it resets or not, but you can load in your total mileage if you know it if it did reset.

I use this 9 hours a day and almost never turn the thing off. I will need to change my battery in the next week or so....that puts me at the 10 month mark.

The information will remain on rhe device for a 7 day period. After that it resets.There is no app compatibility and no synchronizing.Also I find the HR monitor rarely worked.

I would say there is no set answer to this question, the actual battery life that you experience will depend on your usage and maintainence of the device. My battery usually lasts about 8 days at about 2 hours or so a day, so about 16 hours roughly. YMMV!

I have changed my battery many times without any data loss. I have two batteries which I sometime have to change in the middle of a recording and only looses the time from satellite disconnect to reconnect.

not sure, but i would take the battery out and leave it out for a day,then maybe it will reset.

Honestly I have never measured the battery life but, for what its worth, quite a bit of times i leave it on accidentally for 2 days or so and it still has enough battery. If youre using it connected to the usb its not going to run out of battery because its getting powered by it.

This device uses Permanent Memory without Battery backup. I have cycled the power several times in the 8 months or so I owed it and it holds the settings just fine. Modern memory Integrated Circuits hold their memory state without Battery power.

Not in my experience. I have disconnected / removed the battery several times from my Droid 4. This did not cause a loss of data.

Its a pretty long time. I charge it occasionally, but it has never died on me while I was using it.

Taking your questionsIs the battery changable?Quick and short No, unless you take your phone to a service dealer.Battery life: that depends of your carrier coverage, how often you will use your data service,etc. Based in my experience, the battery last 26 hours before the battery completely die.

I've never updated the firmware and still haven't seen any issues with battery life. Typically, on a 10-day vacation with daily pictures etc I'll see the battery start to go low on day 5 or 6. Maybe you got a unit with a defective battery?

it does retain its memory for 'learned functions' for battery change outs. as for long term without batteries, I don't know.

Hi, the instructions for it says it will store up to 30 days worth of activity but delete the oldest if the memory becomes full. Sorry that doesn't answer your question properly, but I guess it gives an idea!

As far as I can tell, there is no way to back up data as there is no output to any storage device. But....it does have flash memory so that you don't lose data during battery replacement.

No but looses the time unless you very quick at reconnecting it. I always check my programing after changing a battery and it has not changed but until yesterday I have always had to reset time. I changed the battery yesterday and the time remained on so I guess I was quicker than normal.

i reread your question and here's a clarification. it automatically overrides data. old data gets deleted to constantly keeps about 3 weeks worth on hard drive at all times
