How long do the batteries normally last under normal usage? I have no accessible AC power.

I have had mine 2 1/2 years and with everyday use have not replaced batteries yet.

A previous reviewer said a year. We didn't have any power to connect this to either and everything works great so far with the batteries.

I'm still on the original batteries from March, but mine is a single person household so not sure if this will be helpful. I also didn't have access to AC power which I thought I did. I do love the faucet.

I have three Batteries and keep them recharged while I use one of them for a work most of the time. I guess a couple of hours to recharge one. I notice I have to charge them more frequently lately. I wonder they are getting less powerful.

We still have the original batteries (3 months) but our use is not regular. We use the radios when husband is working in yard and I need to stay in tou with him, so a few hours a couple times a week.

Mine works great! There is still a problem with battery life. This thing needs an AC adaptor or a rechargeable battery because you'll find yourself buying expensive large batteries. All in all, it's worth the price.

Really couldn't say - I use these infrequently. I will use them nightly for a week or two, then turn them off. Only use them on dark winter evenings. Still using the batteries from last year, therefore. So - I will hazard a guess that they last a long time, maybe several months if not used daily.

This is a very small device without serviceable batteries...no snap opens etc...it is recharged automatically via the usb cable. The batteries will last for at least one hour or longer...I let my dog run and have made videos much longer than an hour...and still have some battery left...I shut it off intentionally...never had a problem with not having battery power available...but I also make sure that it is fully charged before using...I leave it plugged into my computer before use...

The batteries have no memory and can be charged anytime. My batteries have lasted 40 minutes or so with normal use.

Mine lasted longer than that, but you can change the batteries. Carefully twist the plug where the on/off switch is. It opens, and you can access the batteries.

I just plug the batteries in for around 8 hours and use em. It works well for me. I hope this helps. I had also purchased new batteries and I charged them overnight the first time. GOOD LUCK

These are not battery operated. They plug into standard household 110volt AC outlet.

I just bought them a week or so ago and they usually last for 1 hour then blinking, about 1 hour more before they start turning off the controller. My Xbox brand battery last for about 12 hours of play before blinking, another hour before it turns off. The charging station has green lights on all the time weather there is a battery in it or not. When i place a dead battery in it the red light comes on as well, making a sort of red orange glow. When charged the red light goes out so you only see the green. They usually charge pretty fast about 2 or 3 hours.

I don't use the batteries for power , I just bought the power cord to use 110 volt house power.It's not very expensive and a lot cheaper than keep changing batteries

I leave mine plugged in without batteries with no ill effects so far. But am concerned about power surgesrecently. They have reset my computer even with line conditioning and battery backup. Prob. from on/off/on cycle.

I never use the ac adapter. I only use the batteries. They last about a week of solid playing.

If you have fresh batteries they will last from 3 to 4 days, best thing to do to conserve energy is to turn them off at night, or when you are not in need of them.

I'm not sure, but quite a while. I ended up leaving mine plugged in overnight.
