How long does the battery last per charge? Not getting a very long use on a full charge (about 4-4.5 hrs) which is real pain when doing phone suppport

Phone support is the hardest on them because both the microphone and speakers are working all the time. Your four hour experience should be about average.

I get 6 to 8 hours of music/talk time. I probably talk 2 hours combined so maybe the mic takes a bit more juice if you are using it the entire time. I leave it plugged in overnight to charge.

My experience is similar, although I don't usually use it constantly all day. I keep it charging whenever I'm not using it.

I have not pushed it past 2 hours, but you can have it plugged in while using it, and it lasts all day that way.

That is my experience as well. I need to keep the headset physically connected to the PC for many hours of my work day.

five to six hours is the best I've gotten from them. If your getting 4.5 hours of use out of them you're doing ok. I've had 2 sets and they both got about 5 to 6 hours of use before I had to plug them in. Bob

I normally just allow my phone to get to 2% prior to charging it. I tried at 30% before and the phone seemed to die fast than before. It takes my phone a couple days to reduce to 2%. If it is at 20% I will play games for about an hour so I can throw it on the charger for the night. It does take a few hours to get a good charge on it.

Since I've been using it, the phone and the battery back up haven't every fully depleted. I can just say from the first day I got the battery pack it takes about 2 hours to fully charge. but that's been a while now so my memory could be faulty...

Haven't used it for more than 4 hours, don't know exactly how long it would last. Would expect not to have less than 6 hours of usage from it at its depletion rate. Battery life becomes a non-issue with this battery.

My battery lasts several days. I don't use it for long conversations usually, so if you normally have long conversations, you may want to charge it daily, but I usually charge mine up 2 or 3 times a week, and it doesn't take long to charge it up either.

Someone posted in here somewhere that the the battery life is more like 2 hours for 2 hour charge. Apparently there is a problem with the charger that can be remedied by the way you charge it.

I'm not sure how long actually it takes to charge but it does take quite a while or so it seems.try a little bit longer. I hope it does charge for you.

In standbys or light use such as occasionally checking emails and answering phone calls the charge last me all day (14hrs). I get that with the original battery also. It is important to note that it took about 3 charging cycles to get this performance. Out of the box after original charge I only got 8 hrs, but in my case performance improved after more use. Heavy use gets me about 6-8 hrs depending on what I am doing.

Did everyone try charging the unit while it is powered off?It seems to make a different to me. I bought three(3) and so far all battery seemed to be decently averaged out around 2.5 hours or so (mainly net surfing and video conferencing) after few months of usage. Power on while charging seems like charges don't hold too well even it shows 100% charged.Try it out...it may make some different.

Your question surely indicates that your battery is going out. Perhaps the seller shipped to you an old or defective battery, if it did come with the phone you just purchased. The standard battery should last an average of approximately four to five hours with heavy use and even much longer on standby. I have never experienced less, even with average or above usage. Depending on your level of usage, charging would ordinarily be necessary only every six to nine days, from my experience. I choose to use the extended battery, instead, as an additionally helpful suggestion. Good luck, John.

My original battery lasted about 4 years. But I'm not a heavy user of the phone. Even then it still worked it just wouldn't hold a charge more than about 8 hours.

If you are asking how long your PHONE or other item will stay charged, after charging....then I charged my phone in the AM at camp, and didn't use it much and it still had prob 40% or so when I went to bed. So a normal day's charge for me. The device itself, I've been home 2 weeks, and it still had 1/2 the usage bar full when my husband borrowed it this morning.

I have a similar model (not exactly the same one) and the battery life is superb - lasts many days of normal usage and many years of use. I am now in my third year of use. Remember, if you are in an area of low or no coverage, this drains the battery fast and it's best to turn off your phone in such cases, if you can.

30 or so minutes to charge. . With continuous use, it stays charged 4 or 5 hours. Actually I've never had them go dead on me if that means anything

Hello:I bought two units. I always have one charging when the other runs out. I have not tested the unit in the charger. The battery life is excellent (more than 24 hours). I don't use the unit as the main telephone (answer or call regular everyday life situations - only for an emergency). Every time I want to make or answer a call, I do it from the wireless telephone or the main telephone (Base).Regards;Ino
