I work in a cublical with no plug ins. How long will it last before I need to take it home and recharge it?

Very rough estimate, probably around 10 hours till it's completely dark... that said, it depends on which setting it's at (there are 3 brightness settings), and it doesn't just go dead, it gradually gets dimmer with time. I have not had it actually turn off even after probably more than 6 hours of use over a long period (i lost the charger), but it definitely got dim. I'd say you have a good 4-5 hours that it's "strong." For what it's worth, it can get power/charge from a USB port on your computer in addition to the wall outlet.

Let me add, you can go to hisgadget.com, call them and ask for the the number for their tech support for oxyled lamps. Then call that guy and ask him your question. It is possible they may have tested it or have a more scientific estimate based on battery capacity and power consumption. If you get to the right person they actually know their stuff.

I generally charge it for about ten to fifteen minutes and work a full time job and it's never really died on me...If I get up to leave the computer I'll usually just hook it up and when I come back unplug it and I'm good to go. Never had it die on me yet.

You should at least be able to power up after 2 hours. I've always left mine plugged in overnite but they've been known to have defective batteries.

I have mine plugged into an electrical socket all the time. I bought it for when there is a power failure at night. When the house power goes off, the flashlight will turn on. Not only will I be able to find it, but I will have light on high for around 2 hours and if I keep it on night lite setting it can last up to 15 hours. For $7.99 it is a great device for safety when emergencies happen. I am not sure how long it takes to charge from the dead state as I have always kept it plugged in since I received it.

Charge it for over 24hrs prior to first use. It goes back to its home base automatically after work.

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

Don't know, really. I usually just plug it in and leave it till the next day.

a couple of hours but it dose not hold it for very long so I just left it plugged in. It only lasted a year .I thought it was the light burned so I replaced it, but it wasn't the problem . I guess there disposable .

I'd not assume it's safe to leave it plugged in unless you see a statement saying that it is. In fact many manuals will say "Don't charge for more than 24 hours" or "Don't overcharge" showing that you shouldn't leave it on. If your thinking of that so it has a routine "fresh charge" that you don't need to think about doing regularly I'd get a timer that turns it on for just 15 minutes a day and/or a regulated power supply (like the Schumacher PC-6 or Coleman powerchill cooler AC supply) that won't "overcharge" it.

The wire will attach to the cube. About 1-2 meters long. You can detach it after charge. the charge lasts 5 hours. I think it lasted longer at our party approximately 8 hours.

It would depend on how far you normally work from your computer. The further from your computer you are the more power it uses. It recharges quickly though. When I am at the computer it would last 8 hours no problem. When I have to be at the other side of the office (about 50-100 feet away) for extended periods of time it will last about 4 hours but a 10 minute charge should last the rest of the day.

Just plug it in any wall outlet. I haven't had to recharge mine yet but I'll have to go back and read directions because there is a time limit on how long to to leave it pluged in

It has an a/c plug or battery "backup". I'm not sure how long a battery would last since ours is always plugged in.

We leave plugged in most of the time but it holds a charge indefinetly unplugged. I hope it helps.

It should work for that long. It works better plugged in. I wouldn't leave it going for more than 4 hours with good batteries.

I use this at work, every day, for 8 or more hours a day without recharging. I have no idea how long it exactly lasts but it has never been a problem so far.

They tell you not to leave it plugged in for more than 6 hours; I usually leave it in the outlet that long and it works for at least two complete cleanings of a 2600 sq ft. house. I also have a second battery so I am always ready to sweep up due to the grandchild factor......
