how long does the battery last

It lasted my son about 4 hours or so before it needed recharged. It works best if you let it fully charge before operating it. He wanted to start playing with it before fully charged. But did not hold charge very long.

Running it hard about 30 minutes. Getting used to it and taking it easy is more like 45 to an hour. Just make sure you fully charge battery before using it. I recommend getting a better charger. I got the 2 amp one for 20 bucks and it charges this battery in about 2 hours. Thinking about getting the 4 amp charger for 40. Twice as fast

Hi rick. My standard battery lasted about 20 minutes. I later bought the bigger "piggy back" battery together with the fast charger. These together kept me going more than I needed.

It actually has it's own built in battery. It lasts about 5-6 hours, which isn't too shabby.

About 6 - 8 hours if you run the battery all the way down. Which I dont recommend because your batteries wont last very long.

So far after I charge the battery it will last about 90 minutes. I have not had any issues with the battery.

I don't know the life span of the battery. I still have the same one that came with it when I bought it back in December. Maybe someone who has had one of these longer could give you a better idea about the battery life.

I'm not sure about the battery life. But I haven't changed battery yet since I bought mine. Just be sure to turn it off after you use it.

I have had mine for a couple of years. It does stay on for more than 4 hours. Unless they improved the battery draumatically you will not get 6 - 8 hours.

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

The most I have had battery life is a little over 2 hrs. If you charge it and don't use it right away it will die. But honestly for the money its a good price. Hope this helps.

Mine is near 3 years old. Battery life is certainly shortened now (probably 10-12 minutes run time) but zero complaints about its performance. Gets used a few minutes every few days. I have been guilty of leaving it on charge a few days over the years. Certainly been a good value so far. Will likely built my own battery for it when the run time is unusable.

Usually the battery last between 4 to 6 hours. Just make sure you don't drain the battery. When you see that the battery is almost gone, charge it to prolong the battery life.

I am not sure of exactly how long but it seems to be about 2 hours or so. I have actually never timed it. This is an older laptop my kids use for games so that might be why the battery doesn't seem to last very long. Hope this helps! :)

If you leave it on constantly then probably only 1 day it's a tiny battery. but if you only use it a couple hours a day it will last.

It slightly varies, but usually about 2 weeks. I have found however, that battery life is shortened in very cold weather.

I have been happy with it. Instead of about 2 hours of unplugged life, the battery gives 3 hours. The physical size is the same.

Well, it depends how long you keep it on. In general, It lasts at least 9-12 hrs in a day when it's on, but if you use 'sleeping mode', it would be more than one day(at least one and a half day you don't need to charge it). Hope it helps.

I still average about 2-3 hours on mine. I've had in the neighborhood of 15 months. Been a great battery.
