I inserted two rayovac rechargeable, or lithium AA, and both are excellent.

I do not have an exact time that the batteries last. I can tell you that I've used it numerous times and haven't really had any issues with battery life.

i get about 6 hours on basic day to day things, like internet and word document. but i keep the backlit keyboard turned of, the screen brightness on low, and i keep it on powersave mode. on the first day that i got it, i was curious how long it would last if i did absolutely nothing, just letting the computer idle. (screen turned of as well). i got over 9 hours.

My battery life lasts quite a while. I was watching a live stream video and it lasted 4 - 6 hours. On a regular basis, just checking email, surfing the net, etc I only have to charge every two or three days.

I can't say that I've check on the battery life. It seems to last pretty long. I will check this week and try to repost.

battery life is good (Haven't done an exact measurement, but it seems like I recharge about every 3 or 4 days). It has an automatic sleep function that preserves the battery life. Full charge in about 2 hours.

I can't say I have ever measured the battery life but we are happy with it. As long as it was plugged in overnight, it usually makes it through the day, because we set it to suspend after 15 minutes of idle time and we rarely use it for more than 30 min straight. If I ever take it with me to work somewhere for an extended period, I just take the cord with me, it is pretty light.

I haven't done a test (like running movies for hours to clock the battery life), but I would say about 6-7 hours of use. I use it a lot, but only need to charge the battery every 2 days or so. No battery gets used when it's off, either (I know that sounds silly) - for example, I had charged it fully and the. Had it in my bag for 3 days before taking it out to use it, an the battery was still charged to 100%. So far, great battery life. Hope that helps.

normal use being reading and sending e-mails, plus working with word documents, Evernote and browsing? the battery life is around 9 to 10 hours. if however you watch videos and play games, the battery life is around 3 to 4 hours.

The battery life has been great so far! I've had mine for two months, I never turn it off, and I use my computer for 8-12 hours every day. The batteries haven't needed changed yet.

About 6 - 8 hours if you run the battery all the way down. Which I dont recommend because your batteries wont last very long.

On "Battery Saver" power settings with brightness of the screen turned down, for web browsing and word processing my battery runs to around 10% at about 6 hours or so. In the description on Amazon it advertises 6.5 hours of battery life. I'd say that is about correct.

Usually the battery last between 4 to 6 hours. Just make sure you don't drain the battery. When you see that the battery is almost gone, charge it to prolong the battery life.

Can't tell you in hours or days, but battery life is really good. We have multiple users so hard to judge.

Thanks very much for your response. I'm only getting about an hour or less of battery life. I'm very disappointed. Thanks again.

No way to check battery life from what I can tell, but there is an audio indicator that lets you know when it is close to running out. Never timed it to know the exact duration, but from being completely dead to full charge, I think it takes about 2 hours.
