this is advertised as having a 50 hour battery life. with bluetooth on, what is your experience?

I never tried to go 50 hours as I usually recharge when it is down to one light (out of three when fully charged). I do usually go a few weeks of intermittent use before recharging. Battery life is not a problem. Do not lose your charger; they are hard to find and a replacement costs $40.

My son forgot to charge his before a long bus ride he used it most of the day with 2 of 3 lights. He did say once it got down to 1 the sound wasn't as good. My son loves his speaker and many of his friends and teachers were asking me where I got it because they were so impressed by it.

I never got a chance to find out how the battery life was because the sound was horribly distorted above 1/2 volume. I highly recommend spending a little more and buying the Bose Soundlink Mini it is just as loud and the sound doesn't distort.

I have never run out of battery, but I do only use Bluetooth. Like others said, try to fully recharge and see what happens. If it continues to lose battery that fast I would definitely replace it

I am not sure about battery life with the speaker. I get better than 4 hours with ear phones. I'd guess the speaker uses more power!

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.

Overall the battery life is good. For a heavy user like me it lasts for 2.5 to 3.5hrs. its good. the only drawback is it has a inbuilt battery. which means its not user replaceable.

I use it extensively with gps on the golf course.I goes 3 rounds in two days with moderate email use. I should easily go 3 to 4 days on standby if wifi and bluetooth are off.

Battery Life is pretty good on my unit. Played 3 hours continuously at the beach without charging.Sound is good and decently loud indoors but outdoors not so much. It is definitely not a "Bose" unit but under an umbrella at the beach it served our needs. Hope this helps.

I have used mine for 8+ hours straight a few times and did not have an issue with low battery. I was talking about a third of the time and listening the other two thirds.

its great 4 me! Just make sure u turn it off by hand and dont leave it on standby. I did that once and it died. I've charged it a few times. I use it @ work only and my battery life was only 1 bar down after 7 hrs. All i do is listen to music i dont know if it drains faster doing other things. Hope this helps.

specs say 30hrs...i get about that much, however i like to use blu tooth headphones which cuts that time in half to about 12-15 hrs

Bluetooth range is pretty much as advertised, 30ft. or so... haven't ran into any issues.

I seem to get 3 to 4 hours of battery life out of it. My problem is that the Bluetooth signal can get spotty if something gets in the way of your computer or phone. It's decent for the price but not sure that I would buy it again.

I think that it really depends on how much you use your phone ....because for me my battery lasted quite a while with the Bluetooth on but like I said it depends

I've had mine installed for just under 60 days and the battery life still boasts duration until 2020. That's with all "senses" in use. Assuming that's accurate information, that would be awesome.
