How long does the battery last before you have to change it? And can you change it yourself?

I have had my watch about a year and have not changed it yet. I have not researched DIY battery changes, but there are four small screws on the back for access.

According to the manufacturer it is not, it's called planned obsolescence. They don't want you to change it because you are not going to buy a new one and it's bad for the business.Technically it is possible to change it, spare batteries are available on Amazon and elsewhere and you will need to know how to use a soldering iron.As one guy with a bloody bandage on his finder was demonstrating how it was done on YouTube, "It is possible, but it requires a bit of skill" he said.

The battery can last me several days but it all depends on how much you it. I have a second battery that I rotate so when one dies I just change to the other.

I don't believe the battery is replaceable. I've had the prior version of this one for over 23 years and the battery still runs. Hope that helps.

I'm yet to have changed mine since I've gotten mine. And I've used it a good while and have yet to change them. Really happy with the battery life.

Battery life has varied, usually it needs to be changed every few months or so. One time the battery only lasted for 10 days

I do not believe you can replace the battery. I contacted the seller of mine about this and got conflicting info. They lastly told me to pry off the back to replace the battery which I believe will break the unit if attempted. My 2 still work so I have not tried it yet.

I haven't yet had the need to replace the battery. I did however take a look at it yesterday as I was also curious and the only thing I can think of is using a straight screwdriver on the two screws (assuming they're screws) on the face of the device. You can see the battery within. There is no way they'd make a device you can't change the battery out on... it's gotta be it.

Yes, but you will have to crack it open to change it. Very light technical knowlodge required. You can find lots of tutorial and videos showing you how to open it for many reasons, then, you will eventually see how to change the battery. It´s fairly easy and simple, it´s not Apple style inside.

how long does a battery last? If I have not used it for more than a year will the battery still be good or do I need to replace it?

I have not had to open it up to change it, but figure it takes a button battery. There are two tiny screws to open the little case.

Sorry to say I have never changed the battery. Its not written in the instruction sheet nor can it be found on the web. It just says battery is for back up.

It is really easy to change the batteries! Just pop the tab and the cover comes off, the old battery falls out and you can drop the new one in and the cover goes back on =]

According to the information I have with my manual, the battery is not supposed to be replaced. The battery, with proper care, is designed to last quite awhile, but it depends on how much you use it. I hope that's helpful.
