How long does this device really hold its charge?

The battery pack lasts me about a week! And I charge a note 3....I recommend it!

It charges my Samsung Galaxy S4 almost 3 times when fully charged. Hope that helps.

I charged it and left it for about 3 weeks and it still indicated being fully charged. I then was able to charge my phone (almost dead) three times before it ran out of steam.

To be honest I haven't really timed the battery life. However you can pretty much charge it anywhere that has USB.

As a "moderate" user, I charge mine about once a week. It lasts impressively long.

I'm not sure. It's not a rechargeable device. I've been using mine for at least four months and it still works fine off the original battery. I'm guessing a year at least.

About 6 hours when in use. It does stay charged when it is off. I have 2 of these SanDisk Sansa Clip and one is older. The older one (about 2 years old) the charge goes down quicker as they age. I am ready to buy a new one. I like to have two.

It seems to last a number of hours. I charged it initially and have had only one time where I ran low. It gets used two to three times a week and I only charge it once per week.

I've had mine a while. I usually keep it in my purse for emergencies. The longest I think I've kept it without using it was about 2 weeks and it was still charged, so I'm sure it can last longer (I just haven't had to test it for more than that).

great question, it holds a charge for a long time - it's never run out on me

It actually last awhile on a full charge. I've had mine last as little as a 10 days to lasting a full month and longer, depending on how much you use it. I was going to test out the using it while charging, but I seem to have misplaced the cord. This charge is still going from around 3 weeks or so ago. Give me 2 weeks and I tend to start losing things.Give me 2 weeks and I tend to start losing things. I'll find it and post back.

I've left it for 3 weeks and lost about 25% of its charge. So after 2 weeks I think it loses 15% or so. It sustains a charge a lot longer than another device I have does (1 week for the other device).

At least a week, I use it, charge it once a week and it stays charged, now if are charging the cell phone while using it, it lasts an afternoon

I'm routinely using it for 3 to 4 hours and still has a charge. Guess I could probably go 4 1/2 to 5 hours. Definitely was a good purchase - at least for how I use my computer.

Depends on how many times you push to use or just to scare someone. My has lasted up to 24hrs. With me just playing around and setting it off for 4 or 5 hrs. and I still had charge next day.

I've never had it take more than 3 hours from completely empty, but it depends on what you're charging it with. As for how long it holds the charge, mine has held a charge for a couple weeks and any loss in capacity was not apparent to me. It may hold it longer than that, but I have used it so frequently that it has never been left alone longer than that. Make sure you charge it fully before first use, the longer the better for that. I believe the other answer was either a defective product or not fully charged the first time, because of how fast they lose the charge and how short their charging time is.

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.

It takes about 30 minutes to charge. It will usually stay charges for around four hours.

I do not know how many days it holds a charge but I have had mine fully charged and unplugged for a month now and it is still fully charged as I checked it yesterday. Hope this helps.
