How is the longevity of this Battery Pack after several uses?

It is rated for 500 cycles which is industry standard. The Lithium polymer battery is best-in class and highly rated.

Its a pretty long time. I charge it occasionally, but it has never died on me while I was using it.

The battery life depends on how much you use it and how you treat it. I've had a similar one for 10 years and although I've only used it a couple times per year (more for camping power versus jumping cars), it still holds a charge and delivers well. I've followed the manuals recommendations of "recharge after each use and at least every other month" which I'm sure has helped with that. I saw a review of another unit where someone said "I charged it when I first got it, left it in the car for 10 months, then pulled it out to charge it and it wouldn't recharge". That's what you don't want to do, so always keep it charged if you expect it to deliver.

I have used it for about 6 months and found that the recondition selection seems to do a good job. I have also recharged some very weak batteries with good luck.

I bought the first one 2 years ago, so far the battery is working well. My brother charges it once a month and uses it every other day! Not yet need change the battery, but I guess when ist is gone, the only way is to replace to a new one, after all, it is only 20 dollers after sale.

I've never had to replace it and use it constantly (1+ year I think). It's one of the few things that I don't have to recharge nightly! ;-)

My wife bought this for me for a trip out to Big Bend last Xmas. I still have the same batteries in it and have used it since Dec 26, 2014. on a few trips and power outages.I'm going to say 150 Low and more than 16 hours on High.

Using it couple of times a week for around a year. Original batteries still going strong.

I have run it for about 6 hrs before on a fully charged battery. Sometimes 7 depending on how often it is used. I keep a spare fully chargedbattery on hand just in case.

Yes, it will last. I've used it 5 times for 45 minutes at a time and haven't had to charge it yet.

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

The battery lasted multiple times of me using this keyboard for several hours. You have to be careful to turn it off when it is done. I haven't had to replace the batteries yet, though, and I have used it maybe 5 times for 2-4 hours each.

I don't use it every day and I have had it almost a year and I think I have charged it about four times so I would say the battery is pretty good.I have shot it for over an hour at a time and it still had a lot of charge left.

We went to our local Battery Plus store and they built us a better battery at about the same cost as the ones we found online. It was local and guaranteed for a year. It has been running for about two years with no problem and wife uses it almost everyday.

I've only had it for a week, so no battey problems yet. It lasts my whole 10-hour work day on a full charge. There aren't any instructions included abot replacing the battery, but it looks like someone else responded and said it IS user-replaceable.Li-ion should last for years, but good battery maintenance will help extend the life. For at least the first 10 cycles, I charge it fully, then drain it completely. Don't recharge when it drops to 80%, 60%, etc. The performance doesn't suffer at all even when it is almost dead. That should help you get the most life and best performance.
