Why am I not getting 4hrs of battery life out of this speaker? I play mp3's off an SD card at max volume but the battery only last 1hr.

In my case it last only for one song for 5 min. Very bad product in terms of battery backup.

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!

When I was looking at this, it was suppose to last about two hours per charge, but I barely get a full hour out of it with a sd card. So my guess is the battery might last longer with the radio, but I have not tried that.

I get 6 to 8 hours of music/talk time. I probably talk 2 hours combined so maybe the mic takes a bit more juice if you are using it the entire time. I leave it plugged in overnight to charge.

This speaker has a battery life of about 8 hours. If the battery is low, it can also play while charging. So, it is both portable and rechargeable. This speaker is truly unbelievable for the price.

Hi, it's one rechargeable battery that doesn't get replaced. The battery lasts about 4 hrs on medium volume. The speaker is pretty loud with some nice bass. But the treble and bass can't be adjusted. The speaker can be used plugged into an outlet or off the battery.

A charge should be good for a few hours. More importantly, your MP3 player's charge will go much further, since you won't have to play it at full volume to drive a pair of headphones

I've never run the battery down all the way. I've listened to music for about two hours at a time. Not sure beyond that.

The battery should be good (hold a charge) for at least 2 years or longer, by that time you'll probably want a new MP3 player anyway. But from what I've seen with other MP3 players, there will probably be 3rd party battery replacement made for this in the near future (probably will find it on e b a y.)

I think you must have gotten a lemon. I have had much more than 20 hours of play with this speaker.

Mines lasts pretty long. Ofcourse I don't listen to it that long. Only on my workouts. U should just try charging it overnight. Maybe more than 6 Hours.

I ll got mp3 glasses myself, had no problem loading music, but after awhile it stop charging, do not have any clue what's wrong with it. My best bet the battery is not good. I am afraid to purchase another glasses, they are nice item when walking or working out.

I have had the battery on, outside at a party for 8 hours. The volume was just shy of full blast and it still had a lot of juice the next day. So even if you have it up full blast you get quite a long, long time outta the battery!!! Love my Melody...

I have really only listened to the speaker on battery and it seems to do very well.... however I very rarely listen on full volume.

I have not had any difficulties with any of my MP3 Playlists. Perhaps the user has a different phone than I do (LG G2), but this speaker has been fantastic for me. I just had to re-charge the batteries for the first time after a lot of usage. The recharge time is a bit long - up to 6 hours for a full charge, but the speaker (at least in my opinion and for my purposes) is worth it - especially for the cost. Good luck!

Probably a bad battery. Ours can be off the charger for days and still have a power, not being used that whole time. As in, I had it for a nap time while I was outside and turn it off after nap (couple hours) but don't plug it in, it will still have charge a few days later. It has also lasted over night (audio only) not being plugged in.

Hi! Sorry, this went to my junk file :( I LOVE this speaker!!! It charges up quickly and the speaker works really really well. I charged it in the sun a few days ago and it still has a full charge. It plays inside, in the dark, anywhere as long as it has a charge. There is a small light that is blue when there is a charge and red when it needs a re-charge. You can't go wrong with this thing :)

The battery is used only when the speaker are flipped out for the amp. The charge depends on the volume at low volume the chats lastes about 8-10 hrs . At med vol you get 6-7 hrs , at full vol they went for 3-5 hrs. The key is to fully charge right out of the box. Without using them first. Also to make sure that they are turned off . By flipping the speakers inside fully until you hear the distinctive click letting you know that the speakers are indeed off. I hope this helps.
