what is the life of the battery?

Seriously, I have no idea because I can't get the dang thing to work. I have never been able to use it a single time.

A couple hours tops. None of the Eclipse music players have a very long battery life.

I have the "long" one which will play for several hours (at least 6 at the volume levels I use). I found the tiny one (nearly square) which is illustrated totally unacceptable and returned it. User interface didn't work right.

I have charged the battery maybe 4 times now. I would say it lasts for a good 6-8 hours of on and being used time.

The batteries have a life of 3 to 5 years. This is based on the batteries being kept in a good state of charge as well as being used in a appropriate temperature. The biggest factor that will determine the live of a battery is the temppetature. As the temp. rises the life goes down.

Usually around 6-8 hours. I've never had the battery die on a full days use.

The battery lasted about as long as most. I bought a back up, so I never worried.

I bought the battery on April 3, 2013 and it is still going. Use my computer everyday and charge it only when needed. I leave it on most of the time so I'm not sure how many hours at a time I get out of it before recharging.

Haven't had mine that long, but it's a lead-acid battery, so it should last at least as long as a car battery. I bought a second battery so I could mow all day if I needed to, but I've barely needed it.

I don't have a definite answer for you- but I can say that we took it on a 5.5 hour flight using it on and off throughout the flight and the battery lasted the whole time.

Wow... I have no idea... you're asking what the "shelf life" of the battery is... probably only the manufacturer could answer that...

The battery lasts approximately 3.5 hours, depending on what you are doing. If just surfing the web, you can get 3.5 hours out of it. If you are gaming hard core, it may last up to just under 2 hours. Just remember, if you buy it, to read the directions on how to charge the new battery so you can get the longest life out of it. Hope this helps.

The battery in my laptop came new and the life is about 8 hours. I hope this helps.

Battery life is pretty good... A whole day if your actually using it.. I've left it sitting and it's lasted around 3 weeks without usage on one charge.

Battery - guess it depends on how much you use it. Sorry I can't be more specific

I agree for me last around 40-50 originally. Over time I'm guessing due to battery wear its portability duration is greatly reduced. I've had mine a couple years with moderate to heavy use. Doesn't seem to last over 24 hrs now without a recharge.

I've never had mine die on me but I've taken it for a six hour trip and it had about 25% battery power afterwards so I'd guess maybe about eight hours in total.

full charge it has lasted me about 3 days, but i turn it off now and then. but using it all the time, id say about a whole day or a bit more.
