I walk my dog twice a day, but during the day I paint/read for several hours. Must I remove batteries daily between walks to get a total for the day?

No. I've never removed the battery. This pedometer keeps track of all your steps (and distance etc) for the entire day, from midnight to midnight. There is a separate button called "action" that tracks your steps for a period of time, kinda like a stopwatch. When you want it to start counting, for example at the beginning of a hike, you press "action" and it starts at zero. Then when you conclude your hike, you press "action" again and it stops counting. However, it continues to count and add your steps during your hike, to your daily total. It also has a memory and keeps your data for seven days (I think it's 7, but it might be fewer), so you can click and see how many steps you took yesterday etc. There is never a reason to remove the battery. I've had my pedometer for several months now and have never once removed the battery.

No. If you remove the batteries you will lose all of your settings. Just walk, and each day it resets itself at 12:01 AM, and everyday automatically. But READ your booklet it will give you all of the details that you need.

Don't know. The batteries seem to last a long time if you remeber to turn it off. I don't think it was designed for the batteries to be replaced. This is our third one and the dog has always lost them before the batteries ran out.

Yes...Make sure you have fresh batteries to see if the Battery Checker has no other problems. Moisture (water, pet urine) of any kind will negate the unit from operating...I myself had to replace a unit because of a male cat ...Smile!!!I found that utilizing a 'sandwich bag' to house the Checker will safeguard it from the moisture problem. You could keep the AA Battery seperate from the checker and only inser it when you needed to check other batteries...

I have 2 of the candles and they each take two AA batteries.I hope that answered your question.If I leave them on all night I usually have to replace the batteries.So I turn them off during the day.

#1. Recharge the TAGG every night. #2. When your dog gets out you get a text or email or whatever you want. So you know the MINUTE they're outside the tag zone. At that point your dog is out only a couple minutes. If you do not keep your phone with you, you could have a bigger problem. #3. Check to make sure your area is covered by Verizon. That is the company they use. #4. I have an uncharted area behind my house. If my dog goes to another house the text reads something like, "I'm 19 feet from 1234 Oak St." If not it will be more vague. But switch right over to MAP and you can push TRACK or text it in. Then you'll get an every 3 min read on where the dog is for 30 minutes. What you see is an aerial view of the forest and dots where your dog is...and if you get onto a puter you can get to see exactly where they went....every few minutes dots. A fully charged tracker can handle a couple of those 30 min sessions at least I think. My dog goes into areas that I can't get to....too much dense forest. So I know where she can get out of the forest and go to that road by car. The longest it has taken to get my dog is less than 15 minutes. Unless they do not come when called. But you will know where they are, marked every 3 minutes, and you will see a blue dot of you, so you'll see when you're close even if it's just thick woods. Recharge time varies, but it's a few hours. My older trackers are slower and discharge faster than brand new ones. So they do not last forever. Your option is the more expensive Garmin collars. I don't know how long they last, but the problem is GPS uses a lot of energy and you do not have the capacity of a cell phone on that collar. I have a dog that will jump every day. I don't pay attention until I get that very well recognized sound on my iphone. Then I go outside to where it says she is and usually in 5 minutes she is back home...to which she gets a very nice piece of steak or something for coming to me.

It will depend on what MAh batteriess you use and how discharged they are. I normally just put mine in at night, and take them off in the morning.

It can be depending on how you use it. Personally, when I'm done using it I remove the batteries and put the device and the batteries in a little sack. But if you tend to use a setting where you want to keep the values you set, then you'll want to keep the batteries in and make sure you have extra batteries with you in case they die (each time you replace the batteries, you'll have to reset the values).

I go through 2 batteries a day. It depends on how many photos one takes. I took 800 photos in 10 days, and recharged both of my batteries every night. I never missed an opportunity to take a photo.

No. When the batteries are in it, it is on. It drains them very slowly. We replace batteries about once every 3 months with our cocker spaniel.

I have 2 batteries. I keep the spare in a kitchen drawer. I use one until it's drained, then put the spare into the vacuum and charge the deained one, my batteries last 15-20 minutes which is plenty of tone to vacuum my kitchen, family room, and bedroom. I use the high setting for vaccuming bathroom caroets and an area rug.I have a long haired dog that sheds a lot. Vac sucks up the fur. Works good on crumbs, dirt etc. from hardwood and laminate floors. I love it!

I never remove the battery. Just turn it off and it will not discharge. If you are not going to use it for a month or two it is(as the others have also mentioned) good practice to remove the battery to guard against chemical leakage which can happen...........enjoy your Chrony and may the force be with you.

No, I have two batteries. When one is depleted, I put it in the charger and when charged I store it while I'm using the second battery. I usually don't need the fully charged one until the next weekend and the charge still lasts long enough to do all of my 1500 square feet of wood floors.

There is a little paper strip that you need to remove. It saves battery life until it's ready to be used.

Unscrew the bottom out just enough for the batteries to stop connecting..I am assuming that you still need to use it the same day or week..In any case when you need to use it, screw the bottom in again..

I do not know what your problem would be, as I have not replaced the batteries in mine since I bought it and that has been since April 26 of this year. I do not get on the scale every day though, if you are doing that, maybe that is why the batteries are being used up. Or it may be the type of batteries you are using. Check with Radio Shack to find out the best batteries you can get, or get the rechargeable batteries, it is expensive at first, but in the long run, it would be cheaper.

We have an older model, and have a recycle bin on the floor under the sensor. I have found if my wife puts something in the bin that blocks the sensor (a few inches away), then the batteries go dead in a few days. Otherwise, it usually more than a year between battery changes.

I keep one battery on the charger at all times, and switch them once every other day or so. As long as the battery will not be sitting there for several weeks, it will be fine.
