I left it in my car for 4 months and forgot to take it out for the top off ever 2 months once. I checked out of curiosity and it had 83% of it's charge remaining. And that was parking it in the open all day at work too. Pretty great retention on this thing.

Hi Melanie, The battery is connected to a connector inside the space where the battery is stored. When the radio is plugged into the wall outlet, the battery is automatically charged. One charge lasts for 12-15 hours. It takes several hours to recharge the battery after the radio was used portable.

I see the first answer of this question mentioned that it should be disconnected as soon as it has full charge or almost full charge. I understood the different way. It can be charging for 24/7 continuously without unplug until you are going to use it. So which method is Righr?

About 30 to 35 minutes but it does hold its cutting power until it stops. It recharged fully in about 15 to

Hey! I didn't charge it for like a month, and I needed to charge it back into the wall. It doesn't need charge very often or use very much. I'd charge it like once a week or couple weeks. You don't really press the button to take charge often...hahaha It holds well

IDK! I know that you have to check it to NOT charge (keep pressed the buttom to disable) to maintain the charge. But how many days... I really can't say. it suposed to hold it like 30 days or so. but never tried.

Haven't really timed it out from drained to full charge, but my best guess would be 30 minutes.... :-) hope this helps God Bless

I had one set of batteries last about 3 months.. the second one was still going at around 5 months when I took it off the wall.

I have had mine for several years. It hangs on a wall in it's charging base. I have not used it for extended periods of time, but it has never let me down.

Hi Darrell, You just plug it in (it comes with a charging cord) your wall outlet. It takes a while to charge, but holds the charge for up to 2 or three months. Note: When finished charging whatever it is you're charging, remember to turn off the charger (big yellow knob) or it will discharge and you'll have to re-charge it.

I forgot to turn it off after shutting down and the charge lastest about 2-3 weeks. I'm guessing now that I turn off and have recharged it, it should last for several months. Or maybe not.

Battery is inside but we keep our unit plugged in to the wall. It holds a charge for a long time. We live it!

I have mine pluged in to the wall at all times. When the monitor is fully charged it will last 6 hours.

Received mine this morning. From a wall, it took, at minimum, 3 hours. The next time I remembered to check if it was fully charged was two hours later, and the LED indicator showed it was fully charged. Other times listed here are likely from an earlier model, that also had different features. The manufacturer should clarify these specifications, since old answers and reviews are misleading current customers.

Specifically, I don't know how long, but, the cool thing about this charger is it turns off when it's fully charged, that is, the lights don't flash any more. So, plug it in to charge, and lights flash on and off when charging --- when they stop flashing, it's done. Usually about an hour or so when fully dead. Also, leaving it plugged into the wall overnight hasn't affected it in any way. Hope that helps.

Around 6 months. By the way, I use a wall outlet adapter rather than an usb connection to charge mine.

Eugen... the item is recharchable. It comes with a wall mounting unit that plugs into an outlet. When you are not using it, place the item on the wall unit for recharge.
