I'm not sure of the actual battery life but I use it during hunting for tracking and with a full charge it lasts in full power a good 20-30 mins before bumping down to the next level. I absolutely love this product and definitely worth it.

Not sure exactly but it lasts a good bit...it's a rechargeable battery. I work.night shift and it's never ran out on me.

I don't know the battery life, however you are purchasing a top tier battery so it will take hundreds of recharges. Don't buy a Mickey Mouse battery that cost a lot less, because a good battery is as important as the light. You get what you pay for. By the way, the Fenix PD35 light is excellent.

Cannot truly say, I was using it 5 - 8 hours daily and it still had battery. If I had to be over night without a charger turn it off and start the next day, it still ran but limited.

I got it mid summer 2014 It had 10 hrs of battery. Since I'm an engineering student I never turn off my laptop and I'm always pushing it to its limits. It's lasted without any problems and still has 10 hrs(w/o internet of course). With internet it has about 8hrs. It's lasted 3/4 of the year with no decrease in performace

The battery life is very good. I've been using it a couple of months now. I'm still using the furnished batteries. It has an on-off switch which would save on batteries even more, but I never remember to turn it off. It's very comfortable to use. I'm extremely pleased with it.

For normal use the laptop gives you 2 hours and half, and for extreme use just like an hour, now for the battery life I think is larger than 2 year, since I bought this laptop in september of 2012 and the battery died at november 2014, but I have been using it in very extreme conditions for like 16 hours a day every day since I bought it, playing video games, editing videos, hydrological modelling, running virtual machines and it never defraud me.

I've only had it for 5 weeks, so I don't know the battery life yet. It is working quite well.

Battery life. Turn it on setting 5, leave it on for 3 yrs is what they claim. I personally turn mine off when not in use. 123 wouldn't even last a month.

Mine lasts about 7~8 hours for regular use when I use the Quite Office Setting.I know it's still better than any other laptops as to battery life.

3 hours if you are using the maximum performance option, about 5-6 if you are on battery saver. :)

I'm not sure about the battery life. But I haven't changed battery yet since I bought mine. Just be sure to turn it off after you use it.

For casual use including surfing, youtube, and writing, the battery lasts for upwards of 6-7 hoursFor hardcore gaming...likely an hour or lessvideos are somewhere inbetween... around 5-6 hours

I did not use the Lenovo as a portable device that often. My answer on battery life is that it is AVERAGE. Lenovo maintains "up to 5 hours" (Lithium, 4-cell, 32Wh) in their official specs, but I would mark that down to 4-4.5 hrs. (the battery is only 4-cell). I sold this unit only because the keys were too stiff for my MS riddled hands and switched to a noisy HP ENVY with soft keys. All in all, (for the rest of you) it is a GREAT machine!!! Thanks for your inquiry.

Battery life is fair on the low setting. We ran ours only at night on a recent camping trip and it lasted three full nights and part of a fourth before quitting.

I've had mine for almost two years and have changed the battery once. Over a year on the current battery. About 7 hours a day average browsing use.

Maybe 2 hours on battery saving mode if your lucky. If battery life is a concern I'd look elsewhere. This computer is mostly a desktop replacement.
