Can somebody tell me how long the batteries last for this device? I hear some complaint that last a very short time.

I was expecting some degree of variation however not this much. In my case I am still using the original batteries and I am at about 11 months with the lock reporting 78%! It beat all my expectations... Mine is hooked up to a SmartThings HA controller and the front door is not the main entrance for our family of two.

I replace every 6 month. I had to buy like 24 rechargable from amazon for like 15 buck with charger and then u r food 2 go

Mine lasted around six months. I use a Vera app, and it gives me the percentage remaining. I swapped them out when it showed 20% left. I am very satisfied with it.

If you use the Nexia bridge with it they will last 3 weeks at the very most. I have no idea if you don't have it linked to the bridge.

I installed my lock only 4 months ago and still have 5/5 bars on the battery indicator in my automation system. (Usage - Deadbolt locks/unlocks approximately 4 times per day.)

I have had mine for about a month. I always forget to turn it off so I cannot tell you how long the battery lasts because I have not needed to recharge yet.

I've had them HOLD there charge for 4 months of non use! up to 2 months of off and on use and for at the irish fest shooting and video taping 2 - 4 hours depending on how hard I'm going They 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.

Thanks. How many batteries? According to your experiences, do they last for 7 months as expected?

Sorry for the late reply...I do believe the stated battery life is correct, at least for the remote pad as it seems to use quite a bit of power. I put two new batteries in a week ago and had to replace them today. I think they should have used batteries that provided a bit more capacity than the 2 triple A batteries that are used.

I do not have an exact time that the batteries last. I can tell you that I've used it numerous times and haven't really had any issues with battery life.

It took mine about three months but then the battery suddenly died on me. I found that odd since I step on it for thirty seconds once a day, you would think the battery would last a lot longer than it did. I thought it was just mine, good to note that the battery thing wasn't just me.

I've been testing mine out recently - I run for about 2hours, 2hours 15 mins. It usually lasts 2 such days - so 4- 4 1/2 hours- which is quite disappointing. I have a feeling indoor battery life maybe slightly better. I was looking for the "rated" battery like myself. Would be nicer if it went a week without charge.

I have three Batteries and keep them recharged while I use one of them for a work most of the time. I guess a couple of hours to recharge one. I notice I have to charge them more frequently lately. I wonder they are getting less powerful.

That's way too long. It seems to take longer than usual with some cheap batteries and with rechargeables. Even then, not 20 minutes. I'd double check that it's not the batteries if convenient and/or contact the seller/mfgr to see if they'll swap it for another one.

hello Julie, when its fully charged it last me about 2 hours. But I have to admit I'm not a fan of this player.

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.

For me, playing audio from my tablet to this Bluetooth speaker, the speaker batteries lasted for a little over a total of 15 hours. When the battery starts getting low, the speaker beeps every few minutes without being obnoxious or interfering with the audio to which you are listening. Even then, I noticed that the speaker kept playing another 20 or 30 minutes before completely dying, so it isn't like some devices that warn you and then die 30 seconds later.

When you start to charge it a small red LED on it starts to blink. When it is fully charged it stops blinking. I haven't had mine long enough to answer your "how many hours" question. If the answer is not in other questions on this page, there is a similar device on Amazon selling for about $11. Somewhere on either that device or this one, someone said how long their's lasted on one charge. The time on the $11 device is probably the same as this one.

I've actually been getting more than 4-5hrs, as of yet I haven't had the low battery signal and I wear these all day at work and listen to free talk live and freedom feens podcasts back to back to back, when I'm not listening to my sandler training cd's... I'm going to buy a second one though just in-case I do have an extra long day and it does run out... or there is the ability to charge these while in use, so you could just carry an external battery pack with usb charging port if you planned on having a really long day with it... but as cheap and as light as this device is, I think I prefer the second device over the external battery solution!
