What sort of standby days per charge? Manufacturer reports up to two weeks standby timing but I'm seeing only a few days.

Not really sure. My advice would be to plug it in if its been more than a few days. The device really needs a charge indicator. Two weeks is an exaggeration or wishful thinking.

I can't tell you exactly except to say not long. It seems if I go more than a couple' days it is d e a d. Doesn't take long to charge up though.. I haven't measured how many shots you get either. Cool product though. Fun.

I am not totally sure, if I haven't charged it in a few weeks, I would probably charge it up again. However, the indicator lights make it very obvious what the status is (whether fully charged or not, how much charge is actually left)

I also don't have this problem -- The charge is supposed to last "up to 2 weeks" (see http://withings.zendesk.com/entries/24429918-Pulse-s-battery-life). I've only charged mine every few days so far and the battery indicator seemed fairly full each time.

I don't really have to charge mine too often... I'd say between 150-200 tests between charges (I'm not exactly keeping count haha!). I probably charge it less than once a month. Similarly, I haven't really kept track of how long it takes to charge, as I usually just plug it in and leave it overnight, but I can't imagine it takes longer than a couple hours to fully charge? Maybe someone can provide some more exact answers, but hopefully this helps a bit. By the way, this thing is awesome. Highly recommended.

I have forgot to check mine on charging for up to a half an hour over time limit and have yet to harm it. Just to let you know, I just checked mine and it is still charged after sitting for two months without being checked.

I think I only charged mine for a couple of hours, and the charge lasts quite a long time.

Hello M. Kirk, honestly I haven't really paid attention to the life of this charged battery but I do know that I'm getting at least 3 hrs. and probably closer to 4 hrs. out of a charge. --A.W.

Anne, it's probably not usual, but I've only charged it once for 3 hours. Still going strong.

I would say these are more like a 2 hour battery and then they need to be charged. Same said for the new batteries from manufacturer.

I have not been in a situation where I do not use Ativ in standby for few days. However, I have noticed that the battery drains a lot when it is in standby. I turn mine off when I am done with it. The nice thing with Ativ is that there is not a whole lot of different (time wise) when you turn it on or when it is called out of standby mode. Few extra clicks are well worth it to me than keep charging my tablet. I don't think that your Ativ battery is defective. Good luck.

Looks like it's not working. I had mine a long time ago and i know i charged it like for hours. Maybe 8. But not 2 days. That's too long. If it's still not charged, then i would think it is not functional.

The charge went from lasting up to two hours to only lasting about ten minutes in a matter of one month of intermittent use. I had bought two and both were the same.

Not certain. When running low I plug in for 4 hours and I seem to get a full charge.

It appears that it holds a charge at least for 2 weeks but could be longer.

Mine works well after a charge and it last sometimes for two to three days depending on use.I use it at work while packing orders 1 to 2 hrs straight.Try charging it overnight perhaps it has not been fully charged.

I never charge mine unless it's blinking red or yellow.. I take them off every night and turn them off, so they are on 12-16 hours a day.. and it lasts 3 days

Initially I charged it for 4 hours. That's supposed to last for 2 weeks or longer, as I was informed; however I have to charge it regularly for at least 2 hours.
