If I bought this for emergencies, how long will this hold a charge? One person already asked this but two replies were from a week-2 weeks? True?

Both of the ones that I purchased stopped taking a charge after 5 months of use. I used them as emergency power for cell phones . The flashlight would work about 6 hrs before the charging issues

Hi ... my charge lasts for several days and that is after using this little appliance in my 4,000 sq ft home ... it is great thus far ... but I have only had it for about two weeks ... I highly recommend this product. It is great ... especially on hard wood surfaces ... great picking up pet hair ... I love it thus far!!!!! I think that one should use it until the charge expires ... then recharge it ... don't keep it charging all of the time ... charge it ... use it until it expires ... then recharge it. DO NOT KEEP IT PLUGGED IN ...

I'm not sure what you mean. If you mean how long will it hold a charge without being used I would say quite a long time, like months. If you mean how long does it last while In use then would say I get about 8 hours out of it.

I would guess several hours, I didn't keep it in constantly after a charge, but using it 20-50 minutes at a time a few times a week, it lasted over a month for me.

I know if you use for charge, at least can use charge for 5 hours. But if you just put in the box, I really don't know how long can hold. I tried charge not use for one week, it still full.

It is supposed to go 2 weeks on one charge but as long as I am at home I keep the charging base (separate but comes with the brush) plugged in and set my brush in it every night. I really haven't tested out how long a charge will last. Do give the initial charge 24 hours, or until the light stays on steadily.

If your battery is completely dead,charge it 6 hours.I found this to be adaquate.Problem is at full charge battery will only last 20-30 minutes.

I am unable to respond to this question, all I can comment about is that it charges up and then we can use it continually for several hours or days depending upon how long we keep it on.

I haven't had any problems with it holding a charge. I have noticed if I don't use it for a few days it doesn't work. So I would suggest charging it every other day or so. If mine is charged it usually lasts a couple hours.

Initially I charged it for 4 hours. That's supposed to last for 2 weeks or longer, as I was informed; however I have to charge it regularly for at least 2 hours.

It holds a full charge for a long, long time. I had it in the bottom of my purse for well over a month or more, fully charged, and when I turned it on like 4-6 weeks later? STILL FULLY CHARGED! I was amazed to say the least.

At least two weeks. I once charged it fully, unplugged it, put it in my backpack, and did not use it for about two weeks, and it seemed to have maintained its full charge even after that whole time not being used. Just remember not to have anything plugged into the USB port when it's not in use, otherwise it will drain all of its power by itself (keep it unplugged unless you want to charge your device).

This can hold a charge for some time; if this is charged up and stored, it can be used to recharge an iphone in a power outage. It will only be enough for one or two charges before it needs to be recharged too.

Not that long! If it's only working when plugged in, something is wrong. It also holds a charge for quite sometime. I can't remember the last time I charged mine (though I only use it sporadically).

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.

Good morning. I own this portable charger and love it. We live at 7400 ft in the Sierra Nevada. This charger is my second device and in answer to yourquestion, it will hold a solid charge for about two months. I check mine if weather is coming and the recharge is vey rapid. I have a special needs child and light is important when the power is down. It is a blessing to have for outsoor or indoor use. Hope this helps. Mrs Wetterer

I haven't tried to measure how long it holds a charge, but, like the others who have responded, I know it is at least a few weeks. Also like others, the blue light on mine goes off after a little while. Do you have the switch in the off position?
