Superior quality-great device. Easily rechargeable-cord in the box. No batteries needed. Charge holds for over a month. 100% recommendation.

My friend purchased the wrong one and hasn't been able to return it. Since then he has been arrested for the item because it was the wrong item.

Guy,At this point I can not recommend this product as mine has gone through 4 sets of batteries in three months. After the second set I knew it was not crummy pack in batteries. I have received no response. So I would recommend one of their cheaper products or a more expensive bluelab truncheon. Picked one of these up rather than haggle with hm digital. The truncheon is built like a tank and takes regular batteries. I hope this helps.Take care.

Thanks. How many batteries? According to your experiences, do they last for 7 months as expected?

I got six batteries, all were dated 2023. I use them in a golf range finder that eats batteries and these are as good as the ones I was paying almost $8 each for. I will be buying more soon. Hope this helps.

I found two batteries and the charger on amazon for like $14. I bought 2 sets. Each battery lasts about an hour while on constantly.

The new lithium ion batteries are really good. Get an extra battery. The cordless model is way handier. I also have a corded model, and I like the battery model best.

I've had mine almost a year and haven't had to change the batteries yet. Thinking about getting another!

I put fresh batteries in before a trip I took for 14 days & I ran it every night. The batteries are still good but I am taking an extra set of 4 with me on the next trip......just in case!

Buy a couple extra cheap third party batteries. No big deal. 2 batteries should get you through a full day of heavy shooting.

Have only had mine a little over a year, and I don't use it daily. The batteries still seem as good as when new. They hold a charge even when I leave them unused for a week or two.

I have owned 3 of these radios and I just use a good quality battery like "Energizer" or Duracell and it seems to work fine. Some people like "Phillips" batteries from Europe but I have not noticed any change in performance by using different batteries. An alkaline battery will probably give you longer life, but it plays for a long time on any battery.I play mine mostly on AC.This radio is well worth the money since it does not cost very much to begin with. I only paid $30 from Amazon Prime.Jim Wilder, Bradenton, Florida

Good quality, name brands last longer but it really depends on amount of usage. Mine works best and last longer with more expensive, name brand batteries. Read package label to learn which specific electronic devices are recommended for that type device.

I have had mine for a few mths. Haven't replaced the batteries yet. But I use mine for my chicken house so they are triggering it. The light sensor is still pretty good right now. Although I do also see a tad bit difference. Right now I still reccommend it. Enjoy yours.
