receiver battery life?

These units do eat batteries. Be prepared to Replace batteries after about 10hrs of intermittent use. Never had run down during 3hr gig starting out with new batteries. Has goodIndicator light that does give you a bit of warning when about to give out. Hope helps

It depends on usage and battery type. And remember to turn it on and off as needed.

depends on what kind of battery you get and how long you let it run without turning it off.

The 'reciever' is the base unit that plugs into the wall. The transmitter that the speaker wears uses a 9 volt battery. We replace the battery before each use whether it needs it or not to avoid interruption. On average each use is about two hours and the battery is still working after that.

I don't know how many receivers you can hook up. Just be careful where you put it, mine either went off all the time, even when I couldn't see anything that would set it off, or it didn't go off at all. It also seemed to go through alot of batteries.

Only if you are near AC power. If you aren't near AC power, you need to get the model that has a battery powered receiver.

The batteries can last for several hours of repeated use but you need to make sure to power both the transmitter and receiver off when you are done. They do not automatically turn off and you will drain the batteries all the way down.

I received only the 600 series and it doesn't gave a very Long off the charging on the receiver life you can only talk about 15-20 minutes and it has to go back on the charge mode it you will loose your connection

The receiver contains a non-removable rechargeable lithium-polymer battery. I'm not quite sure how long it last because I keep mine plugged in all the time. The cameras have no batteries and need to be plugged into a power source. I have both mine mounted outside since 9-13, and have not had any problems, even in the sub zero elements here in Wis this year.

In my experience, the battery life is three weeks to one month under normal use. I am not happy with this transmitter and will be returning it.

I would suggest placing the 4th receiver close to the base station and see if it gets a tone in that location. If it does, the problem is in the placement of the receiver. If it doesn't you might check the battery charge. If the indicator is on fully charged, you may have a defective receiver and should contact the company.

Sorry for delayed response. I haven't used the battery down yet-just for a few halftime performances...so far ....so good!

I am looking to buy this receiver and wanted to know the same thing. Did you ever get an answer?

Yes this is a problem I am having with my new system as well, same make and model. I ordered a replacement the other day. Seems to be a problem with the receiver, I wrote about it in my review.

I can't give you an exact amount but the unit must be plugged into a POWERED USB port and not a regular usb port. Therefore, there would be some minimal battery drain. It is well worth it tho, as I can hear "things" from the computer so much better now.

Hi James: The receiver has an AC adaptor and a place for batteries to use as a portable hand held radio also.HD signals can be somewhat weak sometimes so you may lose a stations if you are moving it around constantly or riding in a car with it. Enjoy.

I believe the receiver alone will run 18 to 24 hrs on a standard car battery. If you are going to run it on a stand alone battery, better to use a marine deep cycle. you might get 48 to 72 hrs before a recharge is needed.

Haven't tested the boundaries of the phone, but I did drop the receiver a couple of weeks ago and now there is terrible static when I get a few feet away from the base unit. Probably just knocked something loose. Before that, the sound was fine wherever I went in the house with it...no fading at all, no matter how far I got from the base.

I can hear the receiver go off from two of the rooms I have sensors in, so I can tell you there is an delay but much too short a time to get to where the reciever is to silence it. Hope this helps.

When I first bought my 2nd and third cameras I played with them a lot I found I could use one camera with more than one receiver but could not get two cameras to work well with one receiver. I get good reception up to about 50ft through outside wall and use them in places where it is difficult to get ac power. I use a lawn tractor battery and built voltage regulators to keep the voltage at eight volts because that seems to be the best operating voltage for these cameras. When soldering the regulators I use a heat sink to prevent overheating the small components. I always disconnect the battery ground before recharging it, but a fully charged battery lasts me about two months between charges. It might last longer but I set that as my routine.
