What will it do if the pillows on your couch touch it all day long? Will the battery wear out quickly?

The batteries will not last as long. You can tell when the batteries are being triggered by something touching the mat because the red light on the battery pack will flash. I use two mats together. I have the large mat on my sofa. I have another large mat on a recliner. The one serves an extension mat that I have on my dining room table. The first time I got the sofa mat, I had the cushions on my sofa touching it and the batteries only lasted about two weeks. After making adjustments and making sure nothing was touching the mat, the batteries are still going strong after three months.

I have no idea about that, I kept all my pillows off of the top of the mat. By the way, I've had the mat for almost half a year, and at this point I don't even turn it on any more, or for that matter even roll it out all the way. Just having the mat anywhere near the surface of the sofa keeps my guy off of it. This product saved my furniture!

Have not had that problem. You can kill the battery in a day easily if you leave the mouse on and use it and the keyboard frequently, but if we only use the remote, the charge will last weeks...even with occasional mouse and keyboard use.

No, I keep mine plugged in whenever I'm not using it and it still plays for 7 hours or more on battery.

My cat walked across the couch and set it off and now will not go near it but yes if you don't need to cover the couch you can drape it over because the battery/alarm pack is heavy enough to hold it in place. Plus couch pillows don't set it off either. I can't believe I have struggled for so many years and in one week it solved my pet/ furniture issues!!

I just bought mine (BIG JAMBOX) a month ago...and YES, eventually the battery will wear out...how soon? it will depend on the usage. But you can use the BIG JAMBOX while plugged-in to your power outlet.

It eats it quickly because you have to plug the dongle into the mouse before it will turn off. For people with desktops, this might not be the best option, but I haven't replaced the battery in 4 months while using it with my laptop.

oh yes. I have a leather couch and it's always plugged in and ready. I use it when sitting in my office chair as well, I also sometimes lay on it on the couch

The batteries will work for days. The comfort starts to fade for me after about 4-5 hours. The top of my head starts to become irritated from the headphones. Still, not bad for a few hours and individual results may vary.

I've had my tv for over 3 years and still love it. I don't use it often any more, but the battery will still last for about 1.5 - 2 hrs.

I'm a bit surprised by my Zune. I'll leave it in untouched, unused, and within 4 days the battery is dead. What a pain! A big disappointment. I mean heck, my cell phone lasts a lot longer than that. Is this normaL? I can see the battery dying if I was using it, but it's just sitting there!!!

When the battery is new it will last 3 days or so, depending on how much button pushing you do every time you take it, but in my case after 4 years having the remote, the battery is weak and or dying and i have to put it on the charger every night before going to sleep or it will be a dead battery next day when i am going to use the remote.

The fully charged battery does not last long. Mine is also dead the next day.

Using programs with high PC usage such as video games the battery can last over an hour. Playing DVDs it will last several hours and light use it could last all day. I received two batteries with my computer.

The cushion shuts off but you need to remove the plug from the connection on your vehicle. It will drain the battery eventually if you leave it in. Always better to be safe than sorry! This is in a Chevy Equinox.

If you use it moderately, 1-2 hr talk time and 2-3 hr web surfing, it can surely last a day. For me, even if it is about 10% it can last whole night idle. But some times battery notification shows abrupt reading. e.g. it will be 40% and just after 2 min it may show 5%. You may require to restart it to display correct reading.
