These are not designed for continuous lighting, but for intermittent and for a couple hours at a time. If left on continuously, the batteries will last around 25 to 30 hours. These had been considered for a commercial display case but were turned down due to having to change the batteries every 3 days.

It says on the box that the batteries last up to 55 hours. I would assume that is on the low setting. Other than that, I am not sure how long they would last on high. My daughter uses one of these for weekend camping trips and says they last a good while, but she has never paid attention to how long in hours.

I've had mine about a month now and I've used them for at least 20-30 hours while in the backyard on battery power. The sound is good, the range I am using is about 50 feet with minimal attenuating materials between (walls, doors, etc). I'm not sure how long the batteries will last. You can probably do the calculations based on average current draw and the capacity of C sized cells.

The rechargeable batteries in mine last about 8 hours on a full charge with the radio playing. When I use alkaline batteries I get about 20 hours of play time.

The batteries last easily around 25 hours with quality lithium batteries, while I apologize for any misleading information.

I've had mine about a year and have not replaced batteries. But it depends how much you use it.

Pretty long. Months I would say. We got ours about 10 months ago and I think I have only replaced the batteries 2 or 3 times. Pretty good considering it is used almost every night.

We have been using ours since at least June of last year & the battery has not died yet. So they last a long time.

9 to 10 hours depending on setting and batteries used. I usually get at least 9 hours using rechargeable batteries.

They last pretty long. Make sure you use quality batteries, like Duracell or Energizer. Don't forget to turn them off when not in use. I don't want to attempt to guesstimate how many hours, but we really don't have to change them often. If they start making funny noises, time to change batteries.

Can't give exact time but they last pretty good time. They use reg AAA batterys.

I've had them a month and have used them for hours at a time and they are still working. I didn't think they were gonna last this long to be honest. They take watch batteries in case you were wondering.

I fall asleep with them on, and the charge lasts at least eight hours with the volume on a low setting. I have never left them on longer than that, and I recharge them each morning.

They are 'D' batteries . They last long enough. Still like radio. Its a very simple radio.

Really couldn't say - I use these infrequently. I will use them nightly for a week or two, then turn them off. Only use them on dark winter evenings. Still using the batteries from last year, therefore. So - I will hazard a guess that they last a long time, maybe several months if not used daily.

the battery life lasts approx 4-8 hours...sometimes longer if not used continuously.
