It uses 4 AA batteries, and according to the manual, they should last about 1year with normal use.

It uses rechargeable batteries, its not advised to open it up and replace the batteries if it goes bad.

I honestly do not know. The most I have used it cosistently was for two hours with know issues. It uses AA batteries so I would image the brand of battery would be the deciding factor.

It uses 3 LR44 button batteries. The unit shuts off automatically in 15 seconds to extend battery life. These batteries are also available here in Amazon for as low as $0.12 each for a pack of 10 Maxell's.

I just use rechargeable batteries. Can't say how long they last because I only use it on weekends for two months out of the year.

It uses rechargeable batteries. The ones made by Panasonic are recommended. It uses 4 AA batteries.

It runs off of batteries. The batteries last a really long time. We havent changed the batteries on over a month!

I use the Duracell AA batteries and I believe it takes 16 total. They last quite a while depending on usage.

Batteries are lithium cell CX 2450 3V batteries. You get some with the candles and replacements for the first time. Depends on how you do them Using the timer, They might last a week or so. Outside in the cold maybe not that long. If you turn them off with the remote rather than having them turn themselves off you may get longer. I used them for my outdoor Halloween decorating and had to replace them at least once.

Yes, it does use batteries. I think AA is what it uses. I put them in when I got it and have used it several times and it is still going strong. (maybe 10 uses so far)

Well we have had them for almost 2 weeks and one has never been turned off and is still going strong. We haven't used them as much as we thought though. So even though the batteries have not died with it being on I still wouldn't be able to tell you how long they last if you're using them consistently. Overall I would say they conserve the batteries well.

It runs on 2 AA Batterys for at least 7 solid hours as that is the longest I have used them continuously for an event. The battery indicator still shows it has some life left after 7 hours but I always put new batterys in for each event just to be sure.

It uses a rechargeable battery long life. But we can't said what kind of battery is because it's locked.

We usually don't use ours for more than 90 minutes of continuous use. They could probably hit 2 1/2 hours with a decent battery, but it might be a stretch. I don't know if you need them to run continuously for the whole time, but we try to conserve power by turning them off when not actively in use. We're running them on Energizer rechargables.
