how long do the batteries last?

I have had mine on about 12 hours of use. Still have the factory batteries in it. The camera batteries going dead is the problem I run into when do time lapses.

This guy has an on/off switch so you can turn it off when not in use. I have taken several time lapses of 300+ pics and I al still using Google the original batteries. Two things to consider: 1. These are stick batteries, so it's easier to carry additional batteries with you. 2. The draw back of on/off switch is that you have to reset all your parameters every time you turn your timer on as the settings are wiped out every time you turn it off. I hope this answer red your question.

I have only had mine for a few months and never turn it off. My husband has had one for over 2 years, never turns it off, and has never needed to replace the batteries. Supposedly they have a battery life of up to 36 months. Hope this helps.

The rechargeable batteries last about 8 hours of continuous play. They are great for travel. Regular AA batteries might last 3-4 hrs of continuous play.

Greetings. Theoretically speaking, the batteries can last 100-120 hours. But it will also be affected by the battery type and usage. Thanks for your question.

Not long, had to buy an extra 3 pack of batteries to keep on hand. Never leave home without an extra one.

About a half hour. Then the charge lasts about 10 minutes. Purchase multiple batteries!

I use the light for 1 to 2 hers at a time during orchestra rehearsals 1 night per week and church services on Sunday mornings. 1 set of batteries has lasted for about 3 months and I just had to replace them. I think the info that came with the light said they should last about 10 hours of continuous use.

Quite a while. I have owned this for well over a year now, and I have only replaced the batteries once.

The rechargeable batteries in mine last about 8 hours on a full charge with the radio playing. When I use alkaline batteries I get about 20 hours of play time.

the battery life lasts approx 4-8 hours...sometimes longer if not used continuously.

I've had mine about a year and have not replaced batteries. But it depends how much you use it.

I'm not sure as I've never installed batteries. I've read they usually last two months or so.

I put new batteries in last year after I first installed the lights. I am still using the same batteries. Usually I leave mine on for about 2 hours at a time. I've probably used mine 6-7 times so far with the same batteries.

Not sure. I used it for a week, a few hours almost every night. I have yet to change the batteries since I got it.

depends on your weight. 3 or 4 hours for me when batteries were new, but unit is cheaply made and doesn't last long.
