What is there a battery life on the unit and does it have a low battery indicator?

I think its lasted ten hours. Then it'll start blinking rapidly light blue for a minuet and shut off. I usually have it on during work continuously.

I use mine for workouts between 30 minutes to 2 hours in duration and usually get 2-3 workouts in before I recharge it. Have never had an issue with the battery. The ten hours mentioned by Razor789 is I'm sure accurate. For most activity, I think this will fit your needs. I can't explain how awesome the freedom is to not have to wear a chest strap during workouts. I am training for an Ironman, which will probably take me 10-12 hours and am thinking of buying a second MIO link to switch out during transition so that I can have heart rate data for the entire event. At $99, I would still consider it a bargain if you needed to have longer term data and bought two units. You could then be charging one while the other is in use. Just a thought, but the price point certainly allows for this.

There is no indicator I am aware of. I plug it in when i use it in my office at work and that keeps me going when I use it around the house.

I leave the unit in the charger when not in use and have never had issues with battery life.

There is not indicator I am aware of. It has never gotten low enough to need to tell me it is low. :)It lasts about 8 hours. I know this because I use my iPhone with it and it sends a real time battery feed to display on my iPhone how much battery life is remaining in the top bar (iPads and iPods will do the same). I am not sure about android devices.In my review I said this is great for working out. I hold to that, but I would not wear if for long term use. I charge it every three days and use it for my 1.5-2.5 hour workouts. Never had a single issue with it. I have used it for 75-100 uses now. There is not indicator I am aware of.

No It does not have a battery level indicator, however the on indicator will flash when battery is low. Jerry

no it has low battery warning, it will turn off prior to killing your battery

There is no indicator light. Battery lasts quite a long time and you can usually tell when it's slowing down, in enough time to finish the job, then recharge. I use mine on the lowest setting to shave my entire head in close (not quite 'shiney close--it's not meant for that) and on a couple occasions I've plugged it in to finish the job because I wasn't careful to listen close enough as it was winding down. But I'd take it on a 2 or 3 week vacation w/o the cord--it keeps a charge quite a while.

yes but there is no indicator so it is very hard to distinguish when it is fully charged therefore the battery life varries

I have used mine for 8+ hours straight a few times and did not have an issue with low battery. I was talking about a third of the time and listening the other two thirds.

My $15 version is sealed also. Even with the display on continuously, the estimated battery life is 4 to 5 years. I plan to simply buy a new, improved version when that happens. There may be a more expensive version with a replaceable battery.

How long does the Fitbit battery last and does it warn you when it is getting low?

This player takes double A batteries,and the length of the life seems to be around 10-15 playing hours i would guesstimate,good unit worth the price.Stay far away from the Sony unit not worth buying and hard to place the batteries.Insignia easy to replace em in.

Yes, I'm not sure but I had it running for about 3 hours off the charger and I had no notification saying that the battery was low

Did not have unit long enough. But from what I saw. You needed to turn on and off to save the battery, but believe when not in use very little battery drain occurrs. So day to day I was not going to turn it off and see if I could get by with 3-4 days w/o a charge.

The batteries are in the unit and I haven't had any problems to check. I do like the unit....so do the neighbors.

There is no battery indicator nor does it tell you the battery level.......

I have had this radio for about 2 years without any problems except the battery level indicator has never worked. I leave the radio in the charging station when not in use. I have had the radio out of the charging station up to 30 minutes without the battery going dead after having the radio two years. I have a set of backup AA Alkaline next to the radio in case the rechargeable goes dead. I did not compare this radio to the Oregon Scientific WR602.
