can anyone tell me how long the batteries last with continuous use? will they last for an 8 hr all day fishing trip?

Yes - no problem with a fresh set of standard batteries - Rechargeable batteries may give less life. Use the battery monitor function and if getting low, only turn on when essential :)

I've done 4 trips already averaging about 5 hours and my rechargebles still show full above the 8.3 volts. There' a built in battery alarm indicator from 6.2 to 8.3 volts. So after 20 hrs and 4 trips..its still going strong. Yes to your question....and longer. Im going on my 5th trip this sat and see if I can still get a full day. I have spare batteries jyst in case.

I've used one of these for several years and love it. I've found that the batteries will last for several weeks with daily use if you remember to turn it off when you're done for the day.

In a three week period I've used it twice. When I move the boat I shut it off to conserve the batteries. Supposedly they can last 30 hours of total usage.

I can't give you a specific time these last, but I have had excellent performance out of them. I use them at night to light up my camper and I have been out as long as two weeks and they made the trip on a single set of batteries.

I sold this to one of the guys I work with some time ago. If I remember correctly a set of 2400mhr rechargeable batteries lasted about 8 hrs. it was about the same w/ the Harbor Freight cheapies.

Mine are still on the original batteries and I've used them through 3 dinner parties. They have run approximately 12 hours for me and there is still light. They are led lights so they pull very little off the batteries.

Haven't used it but a couple of times so far.I used it fishing at night and it worked great for the 30 mins that I needed it for.

I am not qualified to say how long the batteries will last based on your description but would assume based on my past experience that they will have a fairly long life compared to other style batteries. Unfortunately they are not rechargeable.

I bought it in July 2014 and have not replaced the batteries yet. But I do not run it all the time just occasionally. I have a water barrel with few goldfish in it and just run it for about 30 min. at a time, maybe twice a week. Hope that helps some.

Battery life is good, depending on outside temperature. One set lasted me the season although I do not hunt on a regular basis. Even low batteries worked for quite awhile. It does not run constantly it operates on stop n go.

I've had them HOLD there charge for 4 months of non use!up to 2 months of off and on useand for at the irish fest shooting and video taping 2 - 4 hours depending on how hard I'm goingThey do hold up well I cannot complain!Those batteries that only cost a few dollares and ya I've tried them!NO.....don't hold the charge for long and don't last that long either.I've had the cheapies go in 2 - 3 years you know freshly charged and Dead in 30 min.

Well we have had them for almost 2 weeks and one has never been turned off and is still going strong. We haven't used them as much as we thought though. So even though the batteries have not died with it being on I still wouldn't be able to tell you how long they last if you're using them consistently. Overall I would say they conserve the batteries well.

No, that's ridiculous. I ran mine last weekend for a solid seven hours, with intermittent bursts on full power to get from one point to another. I also run my fish finder off the same battery. When I got home the battery was still 80 percent charged, and that's the most I've ever drawn it down.

Battery life around 1 to 1 1/2 hours depending on features chosen. Proprietary , but I STRONGLY recommend that you spend another $10 to buy a second battery from 3rd party vendor that has almost double the inherent power. That will last around 3 hrs. With factory battery and sevond battery you get a total of approx 3-4 hrs. In short, don't trust factory battery alone if going on snorkel trip.

I have used them for 6.5 hours so far today on one charge. The battery is still going.

Mine are lasting for over 1.5h and they outrun oem GoPro batteries by just few minutes. The real test comes after several charges but I don't have any complains so far. Good luck with your shooting;)

I can't give you exact hours but I can tell you that my sons use their players at campouts for many hours and I have never seen them go off. I have never used mine for an extended time on battery.

Depends how many fishes you have and how many times a day you wont to feed. The batteries I believe three a four months.
