how long does the battery last?
2004271
We purchased ours on Oct 4 2104. We just had to replace batteries for first time.So about 2 1/2 months. The only thing is, it doesn't give you warning so maybe it went dead before because one day she was down the street so we realized batteries must be dead. So who knows when it actually went dead? That's kind of a bad thing because there isn't something that tells you so some day your dog can wonder off. Other than that it works great! So I guess maybe every few weeks, or once a week we should take the collar out by end of yard and check it? We take it off her at night to give her a rest but we don't turn it off or anything. Hope that helps. We purchased ours on Oct 4 2104. We just had to replace batteries for first time.So about 2 1/2 months.

On average they last about 30 days. It depends upon how high you have them turned up and how often the dog approaches the boundary.

Ours actually shows a flashing red light when the battery is getting low, just on the receiver, little red light starts to flash.

It lasted about 3 months,but she was close to flags in the training.I bought replacements at tractor supply 2for10 dollars. I really love this system. Sometimes she goes out and doesn't even have her collar. She knows her boundaries.

Depends completely on how much the dog encounters the trigger area. Mine last about 3to 4 months.with a very active dog.

Average Battery Life is about 4 hours. The product description, (That MOST people seem to ignore), is "UP TO 5 Hours." 5 Hour Battery Life IS NOT Guaranteed. On a FULL charge, battery lasts 4 to 4.5 hours.

The battery lasts around 3-4 hours fully charged. I found it very useful to keep it plugged in while using it at home.

The most I have had battery life is a little over 2 hrs. If you charge it and don't use it right away it will die. But honestly for the money its a good price. Hope this helps.

It only lasts a 2 - 2 1/2 hours MAX for me. And I have my computer on the settings to maximize the battery life. Very disappointing.

I'm not sure about the battery life. But I haven't changed battery yet since I bought mine. Just be sure to turn it off after you use it.

Battery is supposed to last about 8 hours but can vary depending on volume, etc. I haven't really pushed it that far to see if it will last that long.

It hard to say but I leave mine on charge the day prior to using for a period of time. I can get about 7hrs playtime.

I haven't actually timed it, but I've been able to use it quite a bit without recharging. I use quite a lot on Sundays and for hours at a time on other days of the week. Takes several days before I have to recharge. I have been impressed with the battery life.

the battery works quite well. it lasts at least one to two days if you consistently use it. although its off for a while, you still can turn it on without losing power not being used.

I don't think it's more than a couple of hours, from a drained battery. But I'm not 100% sure. Definitely not an all day thing though.

The battery will last for 10 hours, but only when kept at a moderate volume. If you crank the volume up near max, the battery will last about 5 hours.

Around 1 month, and I use it daily. Howere, sometimes, the led light in front keep flashing, then the battery will last for a couple of days only.

Less than 4 hours for mine. The battery really does last a long time. I've had mine for several months and use them for up to 4 hours or more at a time, a couple of days a week. I have only had to charge them a couple of times so far. I am impressed with the battery in these.

So far after I charge the battery it will last about 90 minutes. I have not had any issues with the battery.

I only use mine about half the day, but the battery last as long as I need it to. HINT: I charge it every morning before starting to use it.

Quite a while. I have owned this for well over a year now, and I have only replaced the batteries once.
