Do these still fail to hold the additional power after a month of use?

Mine is still working fine and have not noticed a change in the additional energy it holds.

I think it has to do with how you charge it. I thought mine wasn't holding a charge after a few months, but what I found is that if you charge the Power Grip and Vita separately, then it holds its full charge. I don't recall if the manual says to do that, but that's what works for me. I get a full week out of mine on one charge, no problem (one hour train commute to and from work and some time before bed here and there).

I actually didn't use my Vita often. Maybe a couple days a month. That being said, its hard for me to tell if it was holding its charge, but it didn't seem like it did after the first 4 or 5 charges. I felt like the Vita had the charge and not the grips. I also had issues with getting it to charge at times and eventually the piece you plug the charger into came loose making that unusable. So its now just an overpriced grip that cannot be charged while playing. The grips themselves are great (if you don't need the trigger, the charge and battery part of it, not so much.

Yes they work sumultaneously but they lost power if you use one you have. Good power

Actually, no. And ours totally failed within a couple of months of casual use. The company sent another power supply but that was not the issue and we just gave up on it

All of mine work so far... But I do look at them as being disposable the last set I had stopped working after a month of regular usage however the price is right and I'll use them as long as they work and then order more.

It hasn't been a month yet but I figured having an answer is better than none. I have owned mine since June 18th (12 days now) and it has been working fine.

Mine work fine. Since the battery pack is long, they have to be the only thing plugged into the outlet. Hope this helps.

No, I have not. And so far, I have not had any problems with them lasting for weeks and even several months.

I've had my Kwikset Kevo Keys for more than 1 month and they are still working. Perhaps, you received "depleted" batteries with yours.

I try to turn them off every night to save electricity and so they don't disturb my roommate, but sometimes that doesn't happen every night. I had them on for a good 2 weeks straight. They still work. I haven't had a problem with them overheating.

Yes. When our power went out then came back on they stopped working maybe because of a power surge when the power came back on, which doesn't make any sense. They just stop working. This is a flaw or a big coincidence Yep about 6 months they lasted.

No. They seem to use so much less power that they just won't kill the battery. I've had them on overnight several times with no issues.

Mine (9 total around my home) have been up & on all night every night for about 5 months or so. No issues, I am very happy with them thus far and would purchase again. I'll also add that the electrician I hired to install them commented on their quality and how easily they were to install.

I have had no problem with mine they still work or recharge well and hold a charge when not in use. I really haven't recharged them enough to know how long "Normal" would be.

Yes, I'm using them in mine for about 3 months now. They seem to be holding a good charge. Time will tell if they continue to perform well.

I have had one charged and waiting to be used for a couple months and it's still fully charged so I would charge them in case there is a problem with power conversion overseas.

mine have worked very well,but they don't seem to last as long as more expensive batteries,so i keep extras on hand.

Unfortunately these lights are hit or miss. We have 10 strips in our business and we've had issues with two of the power sources going out. The other 8 have been going strong for over a year now running approximately 16 hours a day 5 days a week. We ended up buying an aftermarket power source and have yet to experience any further issues.
