Can you please give me a ballpark estimate of how long this battery holds its charge? Thanks!

Mine last about 3 hours on a full charge. Some have been saying that Maverick will give your laptop longer running time on a battery but I have not yet tested it..

Hi, To answer your question about the life of the new battery I bought for my macbook, a lot depends on the use during the time it is using the battery. I left it unplugged last night for about 5 hours and was using it about an hour of that time and it was down to 50%. So it used 50% in 5 hours. I hope this helps. Anymore question let me know. Thanks

I had it running over 2 hours on a car drive once and it still was holding a charge. It got very hot towards the end. Hope that helps.

I purchased it probably a year ago and it still holds a charge...I'd say it lasts a few hours, it's no longer my main computer so I can't say for sure, but it was a great replacement, very pleased with it.

I also agree with Andrew. I bought this battery and simply installed it and it has worked fine ever since (more than 3 months now). I went from about 6 hours per day of life to now about 12 under normal use.

That battery was amazing. It lasted a lot longer than the stock battery did. I don't really k ow how long it took to charge because I usually just plugged it in as I went to bed at night.

Sorry, I don't really know. I rarely use the battery, except for recently. I took my laptop to a meeting and it lasted 2 hours on an almost full charge. However, the battery was quite drained by that time.

I just used mine for 6 straight hours, and 2 hours the day before, still going strong. I would estimate 10 hours full charge to dead.

Could not find anything in any documentation that came with the battery. However, my experience is that the battery operates slightly over 2 hours before it needs re-charging.

Sorry for the delay. The battery I purchased for my laptop is working great. Only $20-25 dollars and working like it did when I first got it. Holds a charge for 6-8 hours if I am not watching a movie. Really pleased with the purchase.

I've been testing mine out recently - I run for about 2hours, 2hours 15 mins. It usually lasts 2 such days - so 4- 4 1/2 hours- which is quite disappointing. I have a feeling indoor battery life maybe slightly better. I was looking for the "rated" battery like myself. Would be nicer if it went a week without charge.

Haven't used it for more than 4 hours, don't know exactly how long it would last. Would expect not to have less than 6 hours of usage from it at its depletion rate. Battery life becomes a non-issue with this battery.

I've left mine charging for several days, and have never had performance issues with the battery. I know that's purely anecdotal, but its not something I've ever had an issue with.

Not sure. I've used it 3 times over 3months perhaps 20 total minutes... and still going strong. Standard 18 volt bttry. As I mentioned in my review, I chose that battery because I already had 2 other B&D; devices that use that same power source.

I don't know about yours. I just have to keep it charged while using mine. Frankly I look at mine as $100 down the drain. It is practically worthless! If it was worth the hassle, I'd send mine back. It's a piece of junk

I don't know the life span of the battery. I still have the same one that came with it when I bought it back in December. Maybe someone who has had one of these longer could give you a better idea about the battery life.

Have not had a reason to open it up yet. Seems to hold its charge for some time, even after sitting in my hot truck for a week or more. Most important battery tip, no matter the type, run it stone dead before it's first charge. If possible for the second as well. 6 month or more and working ok. Have u opened it? I'd guess a 3032 or similar

I don't remember. But, I have had the battery 2+ yrs and holds charge very well.
