do the batteries run out fast
1551738
I purchased our can opener over 6 months ago. We have not needed to change the batteries yet. We probably average opening one can a day. Some days we open no cans and at thanksgiving we opened well over a dozen cans. My wife continues to love it and so do I. We have had two that were rechargeable, and they both had problems charging. Mostly because they were poorly designed in how they sat in their charging cradle. I prefer the battery model - I think most everyone would.

The answer will turn out as NO, because after using this thing twice, you'll throw it in a drawer and go back to the can opener with the key that you turn.

Hi Emma! We've only had the Zyliss about a month so I can't tell you. They do provide the first battery.

I've had mine for several months and haven't changed them yet. I gave one to my brother and grandson for Christmas and they both love it too

We have only owned the product a few days, so it is a bit early to gauge battery life.

I bought expensive batteries. Plus my first set ran down really quick because I forgot to always shut off the camera and left it running. So make sure you shut the camera off after you view it it's tricky to figure out... Once I got that my batteries have lasted a while.

No it doesn't and the batteries die very quickly but aside from that I love it!

No, that is the only way I have used them. The batteries are fine after 1 month, and using them 4-5 nights a week for 8 hours or more.

Yes they do! Tested with mine. While I can't attest to the exact battery life of these compared to the Sony branded batteries, they will discharge faster.

Yes, I was actually surprised the batteries lasted a month. Figured they'd get used up fast but not in this case. Really works too. Hope this helps.

Yes. They use 3 AAA batteries. They get a pretty long use out of them as well.

Generally not very quickly, as long as the batteries have a decent charge, they are okay. No, I don't have to partway through charging, unless they'd be down already. (I often use rechargeable batteries, like Duracell's, or Energizer's, and make sure they're full, before using.) Hope this helps and thanks for asking.

No they do not. I still have them and I have no use for them. You need to go to a specialty battery store to find replacements. More than likely you will have to order them at the store.

Hello, I'm sorry I can't answer your question. My baby is only 4 weeks old and I actually use this in my older sons room at night for when I'm reading to them or dressing them for school. So because it not In a main part of the house and he is not in it much I didn't put batteries in it. I can say most of the swing hi have experienced do run out fast but I don't use them all the time. It is pretty cozy tho. Sorry good luck

Not sure, but I have been using it for months now and it has yet to run out of batteries.

I have had some go out fairly fast. I agree with Angie, buy best quality batteries and they last a long time. The Spinbrush tooth brush is awesome. :)

I've run mine for over 2 hours but never until the battery ran out. I hope that helps.

No they do not, but the batteries will last for several months. I access them several times a day checking on my property and they last around 5 months without any problem. If you leave them on all the time the batteries won't last near as long.

Batteries are built in and rechargable.If they go bad you can replace them.

They run on batteries. I had have them for more than 6 months and still on the original batteries

I don't remember but I don't think so. I do know that I should have got them years ago. It makes recording so much easier. Up to six hours of time per battery.
