You just replace the two AAA batteries . Better have spares . Instructions claim it will not forget stored prints .

It runs on regular AAA batteries. Their is a little latch that you flip open. Its really easy.

I believe it is the design to merely run off a battery pack. Since it is an emergency radio, the design asumes that electricity is not available for the average radio or television thus engaging this item to usage.

I think it would kill the battery be for it would kill you, After all it is not a car battery.

Battery should last more than a year. It could be that the item stayed unsold for some time which might explain why it run out of battery.

Only when it's dead or You will shorten it's life, same as a cordless phone used to be , eventually they need new batteries from keeping them in the craddle. I wait got everything to die first , even my cell phome.

if the power goes out it will alarm until either, the power is restored, you turn it off, its battery dies. This is a great alarm and I highly recommend it.

Power falls off near the end of battery life. It becomes more difficult to control without excessive corrections and will lose altitude.

I believe so. But the device only works for a number of hours. Then it's battery runs out.

It doesn't need batteries. Mine too inexplicably stopped working after a short while. I had to return it.

Your current usage will determine how long the battery will last.If your running it to full capacity,then it mightn't last too long.

Don't know. I've had this thing for a long while & no sign of battery failure -- works great, don't worry about battery.
