I have used it 30 mins. at a time without decrease of power. Have had no need to try usage longer than that.

Hi Abigail.I have never used it for that long Probably about an hour- so it has been OK.

How long they last depends on what you are cutting. Very hard woods will eat up the battery faster than soft woods. I always buy a spare battery, and you will be good to go for a lot of cuts.

It depends a bit on how hard you use it, such as how thick the branches are that you're cutting. Small branches are easier on it, whereas four inch diameter branches require more power. I'd say at least one hour of full-time cutting would be possible. If you're cutting a small limb up, moving the branches, then on to another one, you can work for hours. Hope that helps.

I normally charge it overnight, but if I had to guess, it's about 3-5 hours. However, the length of it being able to charge other things far surpasses three hours.

Up to 4 hrs, but it takes awhile to drain the battery. Everyday use for a week and still running in a single charge.

probably a couple of hours if substantially discharged. The batteries I'm charging are not totally discharged - I just top them off every couple of weeks to keep them fully charged and it takes 15 - 30 min.

I'm sorry, I did not keep track of how long it took to charge; I just did them overnight. Once it's charged, according to the camera readout, it is good for more than 6 hours of running. The two batteries should be good for most conceivable situations. I have pretty much stopped using the charger that comes with the camera.

I charged it over night. So I don't know how long it actually took to charge. I do know the charge is good for a few hours of use, though. Sorry i can't be more specific.

Usually the battery last between 4 to 6 hours. Just make sure you don't drain the battery. When you see that the battery is almost gone, charge it to prolong the battery life.

Sorry took so long to answer...battery life is maybe three days- I have to charge up every other day to make sure it doesn't die on me.

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.

Yes, the charge is supposed to last for 15 hours. I find that it lasts for about 6-7 hours.

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

At least 10 hours talk time, I charge it every night and it stays charged all day. I talk on it a lot. However mines just stopped working but amazon replaced it.

I've had mine for over a year, so I really don't remember how long it took to charge. The light will quit blinking. Since it doesn't have a battery level indicator, I just recharge about every 2 weeks. I swim about an hour 5 times a week, and even if I forget to recharge for a while, I've never run out of power.

I believe it takes about an hour to charge and the charge lasts about 11 minutes.

This unit has a built in battery pack that you charge up. The charge lasts about 4.5 hours.

It lasts for about 20+ minutes, but I don't use it for long except for short sessions. Please note, it's best when the battery is allowed to drained and then recharged to prevent memory effect. Most folks set it back in the charger which is the worse thing you can do.

If the battery is fully charged, it should last for about 6 hours. This is a rough guess based on my using it for about a week, a short time each day, before needing to recharge the battery.
