How long will these speakers play before the battery is dead?

They say 15 hours. Seems like a decent time before my personal unit needs charged, but have not timed. Love the device, but I'm not happy that they would build a no replaceable batter that gives you 2 year window then nothing! $100 per year is expensive for this device. Product design is not friendly to users!

What kind of speakers? And the battery lasts 80hrs about on a full charge ! Awesome product...

They stay on if they are playing something (if sound is coming out). Once the input stops, they turn themselves off quickly. I don't know the exact length of time, but I'm guessing 5-10 minutes. I agree that it is annoying, because I use them across the room to boost my TV sound and so I have to get up and turn them back on a lot. If you were using them at a desk, it probably wouldn't matter as much.

i came here to ask same thing. love the speaker, really loud but battery went bad really fast and now i can only get about an hour use before it goes dead :'( and from others say i guess it's just a matter of time before it doesn't work at all.

Maybe for a day before they die on you, don't get these speakers, they aren't any good and they won't last.

If you have the plug in jack. My set lasted two weeks before one speaker quit working. Sent them back for a refund.

i have had the battery last about 2 days without a charge. it will also depend on the type and volume level of the music bring played. i listen to bass heavy music fairly loud and 2-2.5 days is what i get.

I've had mine about a month now and I've used them for at least 20-30 hours while in the backyard on battery power. The sound is good, the range I am using is about 50 feet with minimal attenuating materials between (walls, doors, etc). I'm not sure how long the batteries will last. You can probably do the calculations based on average current draw and the capacity of C sized cells.

I power them down when I sleep by opening the small door. Then the batteries last about three weeks. There is a warning tone about an hour before the batteries fail. After about 6 months the Game Ears are performing flawlessly

The speaker is high quality 3W speaker, if use mouse + speaker same time. can last for about 8 hours.

No. It won't. And it will waste the batteries in 16 hours of use. Yet if you have rechargeable batteries, it's the best speaker ever

I've found that the speakers take a couple of hours to charge but will hold the charge for 4 hours or so as long as you turn them off when you are not using them. Not quite as good as I thought they would be, sound wise, but they work in my noisy kitchen when I am canning or making jams and jellies.

One more thing Nate these speakers need to be broke in not all speakers need to be! But these do 20,30 hours of mild bass so they get use to the box you put them inn. If not you'll risk chance of blowing them.

They won't last very long I'm sorry to say. I left mine on the 'timer' setting expecting to enjoy them off and on using the remote control. The batteries were dead in less than 2 weeks.

Interesting question... But the answer isn't very interesting I'm afraid. Theyre good sounding speakers so they're going to sound good listening to anything especially if they're powered by a decent power source.

you charge it via the USB - which i think you are probably clear on... but if the internal rechargeable batteries ultimately fail, then i believe it is time for a new speaker... i do not believe you can replace them.j

It really depends on what you're listening to, what volume and what kind of batteries you're using. I would say 24 hours straight is awfully optimistic, but MIGHT be technically possible at low volume with something like talk radio.I take this canoeing and get a solid eight hours before changing batteries at high volume using a little MP3 player. It's not booming sound or anything, but you'll definitely notice when the batteries start to get weak as the audio gets fuzzy.
