Hi, these batteries did not last long at all - definitely less than a month!

Lasted 5 months - just as long as the battery from Canine Fence.Do not although buy from the same place I did. I paid $34 for 3 batteries and they only sent me two. I'm still mailing the company to resolve this!

I usually change my dog(s) every 4 months. I've noticed after 4 1/2 months them inching closer to the line. So every Feb. Jun. & Oct 1st

Depends how much your dog challenges the fence. I have a husky whose battery I only have to change every 2-3 months and a lab that lasts even longer. BUT invisible fence recommends changing the battery every month. That is most common. We just wait until the green dot on the collar changes to red, or flashes.

I bought them in November and they just died last week...so 6-7 months which was about the same as the Invisible Fence brand for us.

I don't recommend them at all. They are not worth it. If you care about your dog. There is an issue with how they fit. Don't do it

Haven't let them go fully dead. I normally recharge every 15-16 hours. They always last from one charge to the next. No problems with life.

It depends on how heavy the usage is on your system. They usually last about 3 to 4 months with our system.

Using enerzer batteries it last up to 5-6 months depending on number of pictures taken.

Approximately 8 and sometimes 10 hours if I leave them on and if I buy really good batteries. They are easy to turn off and on to save battery life and easy to change the batteries

They last about a year. You can buy upgrades for it ( more run time). Batteries aren't covered. They are expected to be replaced.

My experience has ben different. Have had system running for five months and batteries still running and show 2/3 charge left. Due to other's comments, I bought a bulk pack of the batteries in advance, but have yet to use them.

We have been using ours since at least June of last year & the battery has not died yet. So they last a long time.

I haven't changed batteries in mine yet, light to moderate use over several months. They have worked flawlessly so far.

They typically last 6 months. It depends on how much you use it. I change mine every 9 months.

I've had them and use for over 6 months and they still operate. How long they will continue to work is anyone's guess.

I've had them HOLD there charge for 4 months of non use! up to 2 months of off and on use and for at the irish fest shooting and video taping 2 - 4 hours depending on how hard I'm going They do hold up well I cannot complain! Those batteries that only cost a few dollares and ya I've tried them! NO.....don't hold the charge for long and don't last that long either. I've had the cheapies go in 2 - 3 years you know freshly charged and Dead in 30 min.

the warranty on these batteries is less than 6 months. i purchased 40 of them 2 years ago, and 6 went bad after 2 charges. it was more than 6 months after i purchased them, since i only use them in the fall, so the warranty was useless. i had to eat the loss. 6 out of 40 is, to me, not an acceptable loss.

It depends on your settings. If you have motion activated and long record times it will be shorter. I get 12-18 months on a set. Also I buy the batteries in bulk and they are surprisingly cheap. Never buy them retail. They have very long storage life.
