How long does the battery last on high?

If you are interested in a flashlight that will last a long time before having to be recharged, then look for those that use the 26650 batteries - either one, two or three (with an extension tube). Too many 18650 batteries with the UltraFire name are counterfeit.

Hi! The battery lasts a ridiculously ling time! I used it nightly and used it for several cycles each night, and the battery lasted well over a month on a single charge

I don't know, there was some charge on the battery when I received it, and I plugged it in and left it, I don't think it took that long. Since then it didn't take long to top off the charge since I hadn't used it yet.

I use it at full brightness and the battery last around 4hrs when it is fully charged.

It lasts quite a while. I don't use mine much but I have only put one set of batteries in.

I have charged the battery maybe 4 times now. I would say it lasts for a good 6-8 hours of on and being used time.

There is a metal tab on the top, it opens towards the back of on and off switch. It says the battery's will last 3 hours, with the factory batteries that were provided I'd guess half of that run time. If you get a name brand battery or rechargeable I'd guess 3 to 4 hours. Ive only had mine a few days so I haven't been able to test out the battery life as of yet. Hope this helps

I haven't done a test (like running movies for hours to clock the battery life), but I would say about 6-7 hours of use. I use it a lot, but only need to charge the battery every 2 days or so. No battery gets used when it's off, either (I know that sounds silly) - for example, I had charged it fully and the. Had it in my bag for 3 days before taking it out to use it, an the battery was still charged to 100%. So far, great battery life. Hope that helps.

After it's fully charged it last awhile. The longest I've had mine on was 1hr 30 mins

It holds a full charge for a long, long time. I had it in the bottom of my purse for well over a month or more, fully charged, and when I turned it on like 4-6 weeks later? STILL FULLY CHARGED! I was amazed to say the least.

I use mine on high 30 to 44 min every morning. I charge it every 3 or 4 days. I have never ran it dry. love the light its very bright for the price. would recommend it to any one.

It depends on how much you use it each day. I'd guess you get 12 to 14 hours on the high setting. Over time it will begin to dim. Since it takes AAA batteries it's easy to find replacements as you don't have to try to find some weird, obscure watch batteries.

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.

It should last about 3 - 4 hours in low, but in the higher speed it will only last about 1.5 - 2 hours. We just make sure we charge it after every use and haven't seen a need for a second battery.

Not sure I've always used mine on high. It does depend on the battery you use. The ultra fire brand last me about 4 to 5 hours on high and I found some Panasonic one (the green ones) and they last up to 6 to 8 on high. I know this dosent answer your question but I hope it helps!

It only lasts a 2 - 2 1/2 hours MAX for me. And I have my computer on the settings to maximize the battery life. Very disappointing.

Hard to say with me. I usually just have it plugged in. But my son plays on it and leaves it running on the ground and it lasts for many hours.
